James Hanson is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Dr Klaus Schmider to discuss the monumental decision that has been debated by historians for decades: Adolf Hitler's declaration of war against the US after Pearl Harbour.

It is undoubtedly one that, had he not made, the Second World War would have looked very different. This is History Undone.
