  • One of the best documentaries

    Have seen this many times and it never gets old. The documentary is informative, talking about the history of the national parks and the many difficulties that were faced in creating them. It sheds a lot of fascinating light on how the parks came to be, talks about the many historical players who were involved, both good and bad. I also love the documentary’s soundtrack, which I also have. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes documentaries in general or who are interested in national parks.

  • Amazing!

    This documentary has been on my wishlist for quite sometime, and it was worth the wait. The background on the concept and founding of the National Parks and the individuals involved is riveting. Added to that are the incredible cinematography that bring the vistas right into your living room. Amazing! I have so far only watched the first DVD, but the quality is first rate.

  • Best of television

    Bought this to keep in my RV, to watch on the road when there may be evenings without reception. Makes me want to travel more. I love history and historical events, and this program is full of just that along with spectacular scenery.

  • good

    The initial disc is alittle vague and poetic. I wanted to hear the historical side of the national parks. Eventually the content changed to what I was wanting. So I do enjoy this series. I must warn hang in there thru the first 1/2 hour.

  • First class performance.

    Well, you can generally rely on Ken Burns, and the subject is enthralling. Such photography, such scope of vision!

  • Great history! Typical Ken Burns coverage of a subject.

    An outstanding history of the National Park system by Burns and PBS. We need an update to report on the maturation massive parks in Alaska .

  • Well wort the price !

    Always enjoyed seeing this series but couldn't afford to purchase it. This was not a "Budget Buster" on my budget.

  • Appropriately titled.

    As expected, Ken Burns does an excellent job of telling the history of our National Parks.
