On the 100th anniversary year of the conclusion of the Great War, Chicago actor RJ Lindsey portrays WWI Gen. Charles G. Dawes, narrating a slide program detailing European royal families’ lineage, their politics and alliances that plunged the world into the Great War. With animated battle maps, Dawes examines major Western Front battles including the critical American victories.
