There is also another DVD set by Ken Burns called The West.

diaries, and historical records to chronicle intriguing and compelling
stories. From the first European advance to the dawn of the 20th

who braved the journey. Discover how this migration affected the
indigenous people and the rest of the world.

of the 20th Century. The heroes and villains are real, but larger than
life.Ken Burns (Jazz, Baseball) brings the story of the American West
to life as only he can. With diaries, photos, letters, and other
archival materials, he recounts the major and lesser known stories.

impact that the Civil War had on the region. See the building of the

American leaders, and the simple people that took the chance to brave
the land.
