Great product🙏🏼 Horrid eBay cost add-ons🤬
The history set is wonderful. What wasn’t even close to wonderful was $195 I spent getting the set to my home in Cambodia.

GREAT SERIES--CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH IT AGAIN!
I can't review the quality of the DVD because I haven't had time to watch it yet--but I did receive it very quickly, which I so appreciate. I originally watched this series on PBS and never forgot about it. It was fascinating--they traced the origins of "accents" back to the countries of origin, and the people groups who contributed to the various accents we hear now in the english speaking world. I can't wait to watch it again, some 25 years later.

An Excellent Series
This is an excellent series which I found entrancing. The box was a little rough around the edges, but the DVD's were in very good condition and it was worth every cent I paid for it.

THE ADVENTURE OF ENGLISH
This is an absolutely fascinating story about a fascinating language. It must have taken decades to complete and could only be produced by a very well-informed and educated individual. It is endlessly informative and entertaining and should be a part of everyone's collection.

Wonderful history of the English language, filmed on location.
I watched some of this on the Web and simply had to own it. First-rate production values and presentation.
