It's the most amazing story you never heard. In the chaos of World War One, tens of thousands of Czech and Slovak POWs switched sides - to become an army fighting for the Allies - The Czechoslovak Legion. Suddenly, caught up in the Russian Revolution, they had to fight their way across Siberia, capturing the Trans-Siberian railway, half the Czar's gold, and the heart of a new nation. Almost erased from history by 50 years of Communism, this incredible story lives again - with amazing photographs that haven't been seen for 75 years.
