4. The Civil War
I was very disappointed in Jazz, because it just seemed so rote, it didn't offer any insight.

And Baseball really annoyed me. I wish someone has told Burns that they played the game in other cities, not just New York and Boston.

8. I enjoyed the Jazz series
His target was an introductory history for folks like me who are interested but know little.
I think I've seen all of his and my favorite, other than the Civil War, was his small film on Mark Twain.

6. I've only seen Civil War and Lewis and Clark.
Civil War series three times, Lewis & Clark twice. Of the two I enjoyed Civil War more. Maybe it was the music.
