DVD 1:
The Mayflower – A quick guide
COURTESY OF THE HISTORY CHANNEL
The epic saga of the pilgrims and their journey to and colonization of the New World is one of the fundamental narratives of our nation. Yet the true tale of this determined band of English Separatists bears little resemblance to the popular myth portrayed in grade school pagents. History takes a definitive look at the incredible pilgrimage that brought these unlikely pioneers-who endured religious persecution in their homeland and endless perils on the Atlantic-to the alien shores of a new continent in The Mayflower.
DVD 2:
The French Revolution – A Quick Guide
COURTESY OF THE HISTORY CHANNEL
A dethroned king, a famboyant queen, the storming of a fortress prison and an infamous bloodbath known as the Reign of Terror – the story of the French Revolution is an epic tale of political rebellion and economic upheaval. From the grandeur of Versailles and the marriage of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, to the disintegration of the revolution nearly a decade later, The French Revolution details this pivotal period in European history, focusing on how the revolution shook the very foundations of monarchy, destroyed the last vestiges of feudalism, and planted the seeds of modern politics, diplomacy and nationalism.
