Great lesson in History of our Country These DVD's are very interesting for anybody who likes History at all. I highly recommend them. History Buff
This is how history should be taught in school Gives great insight into the trials of the foundation of this country and the true greatness and humanity of its founders. I thought I was up on history but this series was "revelationary". I also had no idea how universally George Washington was well thought of by his contemporaries.
