Review
A unique then and now 4 part series tracing the rise and fall of Third Reich through it's massive buildings, monuments and rally grounds. By fusing first generation archival film together with colorful footage of each structure as it appears today, the Ruins of the Reich series is a chilling and fascinating journey into depths of what once was the Third Reich. A tremndous educational treasure trove. --World War II Magazine

About the Director
R.J. Adams is one of the very few documentary film makers that has successfully uncovered some of the Third Reich's most infamous sites. Included are the remains of the Tannenberg National monument, President von Hindenburg's Neudeck, Hitler's French Prussian campaign headquarters, the ruins of the Fuehrer's mountain top retreat, the mammoth Chancellery Bunker in Berlin plus dozens of other sites that have remained buried or hidden for over five decades.

Fascinating Film!!
This film provides an in depth look at the Nazi regime. As the history is narrated, wonderful shots of various structures and monuments are shown. "Ruins of the Reich" combines past footage from the days of Nazi Germany along with new film of how the buildings look today. Before viewing this film, I had never seen many of the sites that RJ Adams was able to uncover. Watching was a great way to learn more about this fascinating time in history. The grade of this film is top quality and I HIGHLY recommend it for everyone! Intriguing facts and stories are sure to keep your interest throughout!

Ruins of the Reich
Finally! The entire series on DVD. I first bought the VHS collection of the "Ruins" series a few years ago and played it so many times it became gull of creases and ripples. So naturally when I discovered that the complete had been released on DVD I was thrilled. It is of my opinion that the people producing this series should be commended for the Historical facts which are presented in a most informative and fascinating way. This is more than just an historical collection. It could well be a text for academic reviews at the highest level.

A great piece of work!!
A few months ago I bought another title from this producer and was very pleased with the quality and historical value of the program. "Ruins of the Reich" is nothing short of incredible. As a history major myself, I can tell you that the dedication to historical fact separates this filmmaker from the rest. I highly recommend anything RJ Adams comes out with. You won't be dissapointed!!!
