5fouls Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 I've seen Baseball all the way through. And, a good portion of Civil War. Not seen any of his others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 After a week having let's just say holiday fun I'll be looking to dry out this week. Just reserved Central Park Five and Prohibition from the library. Will give them a watch this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billingsley99 Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 I love all the Ken Burns documentaries, Civil War is my favorite. Not Burns but the 12 part mini series America: The Story of Us is top notch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officer Obie Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Ken Burns does a tremendous job of bringing history to life. I have the dvd of Civil War and Baseball and have watched them both many many times. His Statue of Liberty doc is also very good. I love history. People who are indifferent or not curious about history.... I don't much like those folks very much. Another of my favorites is the HBO 7-part John Adams series. Very good.

Napoleon and Hitler vs Russia, as an example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
