  • Experience American wonders beautifully presented

    This series showed me wonders I will never see - heart warming stories, breath taking photography of places that make you feel you are there-or at the very least wish you were... I would highly recommend this series to those that want to remember where they visited but mostly to those that are unable to experience such wonders. Bears playing over again and sharing with others.

  • The National Parks is truly America's Best Idea--the way Burns and Duncan Present It

    I think this is Ken Burns' best series and that is saying a lot because I love Ken Burns' approach to everything he does. Before watching the National Parks, I had never focused on his collaborator and writer Dayton Duncan, who is excellent.

  • The National Parks best chance to get to know them. Fantastic!

    Fascinating and informative, the story not only educates us to all of the history surrounding the creation of our national parks, it also gives us an extraordinary peak at their beauty. Definitely the next best thing to being there.

  • Perfect

    Interesting for those who have visited or plan to visit the parks. I'm going to Yosemite next. Timely as well. We now see companies wanting drill, log and profit from the areas set aside for the public.

  • A good history lessen and great pictures.

    It does more than show you the parks in pictures, but also is a great history lesson on how they came about.

  • Good Ken Burns series

    This is a good DVD series. It is not, in my opinion, as good as his Civil War and The War sets, but it is still enjoyable.
