GIVEAWAY: Surviving History!

10/27/2008 Posted by Admin


Week in Rewind is pleased to offer a giveaway of
Surviving History!


Own it on DVD November 18, 2008!

Thanks to our friends at A&E Home Video
for this opportunity!

Product description:

Master craftsmen from the renowned Scarefactory in Columbus, Ohio take on a spellbinding challenge from HISTORY: to re-create some of the most inventive, and fascinating, devices ever made. In an effort to understand ancient inventions and weaponry, the team fabricates the elements just as they would have been made centuries and even millennia ago and then goes on to test them! The 4-DVD set illuminates China's early use of gunpowder and rocket-propelled fire arrows, the battering rams and missile launchers of the Romans, as well as the medieval morning star mace and semiautomatic Chinese repeating crossbow. Surviving History documents the fiendish ingenuity that went into inventions of persuasion and punishment, devices with names like iron maiden, Judas cradle, strappado, whirligig, rack, shame flute, chastity belt, and heretic's fork. Not for the faint of heart, the set is an eye-opening, informative journey into humankind's undeniably dark, brutal side.

We are giving away THREE copies, and winning is easy.

The contest will end on December 16, 2008.

To double your chances of winning, leave a comment on this post. You can do so below in the "Comment" or "Post a comment" sections.

Once that is done, sign up for this contest by clicking here and following all of the directions carefully.

Good luck!

Christopher
