PBS Series and link

[Jim Boylston]

I never saw this PBS series on the Mexican War and notice that it isn't currently available on DVD.
This, however, is a nice website, though possibly a bit too "introductory" for many of our members.

I think it's a pretty cool link and I can't believe I skipped over it. A tardy thank
you for posting it, Jim. It may come in handy for a quick reference.

Apparently you can still buy it from PBS:

I saw this when it was first broadcast and have it somewhere on tape.

I picked up this DVD series and the History Channel DVD on the Mexican War as well. Both are very good, but the PBS one blows the History Channel one out of the water as far as depth and interviews.

The PBS stuff usually outshines anything the History Channel does.
