The seven episodes of this series bring to life the stories which feature in their details, such as the train line joining the two sides of the united states, the cleaning up of the diseases in London, the building of a lighthouse in the northern ocean above Scotland and other such stories. They emphasised the tenacity of those who took up the challenges, as well as those who followed them. they were all stories of bravery and endurance, exposing the characters who filled those roles. i have seen some several times, including the Sewer King, as it portrays the human cost of those who died with Cholera. This one has special relevance to myself as there was involvement by my ancestors in the area by Soho in London at that time. For a family that had fourteen children and only one child surviving because they so happened to have shifted latterly to the Isle of Dogs was a remarkable episode of Human story. Well worth the time to see these seven episodes.Read full review
