Science Fair Project Encyclopedia The History Channel is a cable
television channel, dedicated to the presentation of historical
events and persons, often with frequent observations and
explanations by noted historians as well as reenactors and
witnesses to events, if possible. With many programs centering
on wars such as the Civil War and World War II, it has often
been jokingly referred to as the "Hitler Channel". However, the
series Modern Marvels features current and historical
technological/engineering accomplishments - and disasters. The
History Channel also maintains a non-profit fund called Save Our
History , dedicated to the preservation of history, similar in
spirit but not to be confused with the Society of Historical
Preservation . The History Channel is owned by A&E and operates,
in various forms, in the United States and the United Kingdom.
It is often confused with an independently-owned, but similar,
Canadian service, History Television. List of shows - Breaking
