"Another disappointment from Timeless Media Group, maybe better named "Clueless Media Group" for once again recycling old newsreel footage that might have been impressive over a generation or two ago, but hardly today with the plethora of materials and the stardards of quality in animation, remastered footage, and subject-area experts we have grown accustomed to over the last decade or so thru the fine series of documentaries produced on cable like "The History Channel," the BBC, including public television's, "Nova" and "The American Experience".
With poor narration and no remastering, this set is for purists only. The $26.99 charged by Amazon for this set is outrageous; this set can be obtained from other retailers like Ross Dress for Less for a mere $5.99-$9.99 if you must have it."
