Ken Burns - The West, USA History, ep 1-8, Documentary, Proper,

The complete Ken Burns documentary series which tells of the taming of the Wild West. Screened by BBC and PBS. If you have seen and enjoyed Ken Burns legendary documentary mini-series, The American Civil War, then you will not be disappointed by The West. Burns employs the same techniques (letters, photos, old maps, drawings with Hollywood actors providing the voices and historians occasionally fleshing out the tones) to tell the story of the American West. It is a wonderful story told from every angle. If you enjoy American history and value good film-making, then do not miss this wonderful documentary series. In a conversation with us several years ago, the Kiowa poet N. Scott Momaday remarked that the American West "is a place that has to be seen to be believed, and it may have to be believed in order to be seen." For five years we have travelled that landscape, photographed its vistas, talked to its people, sought out its history, all as part of our production of THE WEST, an eight-part documentary series for public television. 8 parts, 8 files, DivX No missing files.

It's a good documentary, but make no mistake, "The West" wasn't directed by Ken Burns. It's "presented by Ken Burns" and directed by Stephen Ives.

This series taught me so much that I thought I already knew - the mark of a great work of history. When I start to watch an episode, my roommates hear the music and come streaming in to the living room. A/V fluid and high quality. Fantastic upload, very glad to have it on PB - thanks!
