Heartbreaking, Extraordinary Series

This series has been overlooked -- but that is a shame because it is a brilliant and beautiful work by one of PBSs best filmmakers. If you like Rics work -- see this series.

this series was made to last

This series is less well known than some of Burns other films, but it deserves to be seen. It is one of the most thorough and moving accounts of the history of Western Expansion and the destruction of Native American cultures.

Wonderful information!

My husband had seen this many years ago and had talked about it several times. I decided to get it for him as a gift and we both enjoyed it so much. It is good to see real documentation and less speculation.
