This is, without a doubt, one of the best historical documentaries ever made. In Search of the Trojan War combines archaeological adventure, historical investigation and a charming presentation by historian Michael Wood to bring to life one of the best known Greek legends: the Trojan War. Sifting through stout sources of information, from the mature to the contemporary, visiting fabled cities, and walking on the footsteps of the people of times past Michael Wood discards speculation to explain an unbiased notion on the history of the city of Troy.
Made in 1987 by PBS and the BBC, this six-part documentary is collected the most complete and luminous depiction of Troy ever presented in television. Each one of the new episodes deals with a particular topic regarding Troy and the Trojan War as explained below:

*The Age of Heroes: presents the many legends and myths of the primitive Greeks, where they came from, the ways they influenced everyday life, and how life ordinarily went on in the Greek world during this historical period.
*The Yarn Under Siege: presents the pioneering men, both believers and skeptics, who followed Greek myths into their historical past, discovering legendary cities, awe-inspiring treasures and principal cultural facts, and, in the process, creating the science of archaeology.
*The Singer of Tales: presents as detailed a biography on Homer as the information about him permits - including a suitable and arresting stare at the very outmoded and almost unchanged art of the bard poets - and a detailed analysis of his epic: The Iliad.
*The Women of Troy: traces the evidence that places Trojan women on Greek mainland as the probable result of their abduction by victorious Greeks after the War, giving strong historical wait on to Homer’s anecdote.

*The Empire of Hittites: presents the commercial and political connections between the Trojans and the Hittites as recorded in Hittite clay tablets and other historical records, validating further Homer’s myth of the Trojan War.
*The Drop of Troy: presents the conclusions drawn from the historical facts about the reality of the Trojan War, its fable and its heroes.
Not only does this documentary include every bit of information you could ever hope to catch about the city of Troy itself and its many legends, it also includes information on Greek writing systems and alphabets, other primary Greek myths and legends, and the birth of archaeology. If you are a history buff looking for an archaeological armchair adventure, the Indiana Jones type at heart or simply searching for an inspiring plan to brush-up on your Trojan history, bewitch this documentary. I yell you that you will fancy it.
I would recommend reading the documentary’s companion book “In Search of the Trojan War” by Michael Wood for an respectable bibliography to fuel further personal research. The book also includes an updated chapter that presents discoveries made on this topic since 1984 and not included in the documentary, which will not only complement what you’ll notice in it, but will also get the conclusions presented on its last episode seem more likely to be accurate. Devour!

This is one of the best presentations concerning the Trojan War. In a obvious and erudite manner Michael Wood has made a documentary that touched on all aspects of the war itself and the tedious bronze age world.

He makes history “arrive alive” and his expend of experts and locales are bright. I especially loved the episode about Homer and the bardic traditions.
The music is also stirring and adds to rather than detracts from the series. Whether you are a casual old history student or a Trojan War fanatic, this series will appeal to you. It makes all the films about the war (even the newest one, despite Brad Pitt) seem a raze of time. None of them catches the right anecdote and spirit of the age as does Michael Wood in this extraordinary program.
