INFORMATIVE AND INTERESTING

This is an excellent documentary.
I felt it dispelled many myths about the West, especially cowboys. Yes, as another reviewer mentioned, a white guilt-trip (deservedly), but "History is not there for you to like or dislike. It's there for you to learn from". Loved all the maps and re-enactments. Only complaint is such small writing when explaining interviewee's name and occupation, but many documentaries make that mistake. Guess I need a 70" television! Sure do wish they'd shown documentaries like this in history class when I was in school years and years ago. Really makes it easy to understand the timelines and makes history feel real. I'm hoping creators of this series make more.
