DVD Reviews of Encyclopedia of the 20th Century (Five Pack in Tin)
DVD Review: Good collection for history buffs
Summary: 4 Stars
Pros.
This five-disc collection is an amazing and moving look back at the 20th century not only in America, but around the world as well. You'll see the funeral of Queen Victoria the Wright Brothers flying their first airplaine in Kitty Hawk, the 1906 San Francisco Eatrthquake, World War I, the Great Depression, WWII, the founding of the United Nations, the Korean War, Sputnik, the Cuban Missle Crisis, JFK's assassination, the Vietnam War, Neal Armstrong landing on the moon, Watergate, Elvis' death. the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island, AIDS, the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales, the Challenger explosion, the Berlin Wall's collapse, the Gulf War, the L.A. riots, the Oklahoma City bombing, Priness Diana's death and Bill Clinton's impeachment. However, the booklet that comes with the collection is a tad innacurate because some of the events (Babe Ruth breaking the home run record, the discovery of nuclear fusion, Watson and Crick's discovery of DNA, Mao's Cultural Revolution, Muhammad Ali losing the Fight of the Century etc) are not mentioned on any of the discs. Also, what's a recap of the 20th century without Mickey Mouse in "Steamboat Willie" "Gone With the Wind", Jackie Robinson's first game with the Brooklyn Dodgers, Elvis' debut on the Ed Sullivan Show, Woodstock, the Concorde, the founding of CNN and Microsoft, the Waco cult massacre, Flight TWA 800, the return of Hong Kong to China from the UK and the Columbine High School shootings? All those events impacted the world, too.

Description of Encyclopedia of the 20th Century (Five Pack in Tin)
Our children will inherit a legacy from a century of dramatic change ? a legacy generated by a hundred years of technological and political hyperactivity. The beneficiaries of this legacy will undoubtedly gain from the technological revolution, but they will also have to endure the consequences of our mistakes and follies. ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE 20TH CENTURY documents the political turmoil, horrors of war, medical breakthroughs, scientific advancements and social upheavals that made this century one of the most critical and turbulent periods in human history. Assembled from the archival vaults of Pathé and the BBC, ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE 20TH CENTURY traces the global milestones of our era. Acclaimed documentarian Gary Tarpinian presents a narrative portrait of the events that shook our world and changed our lives forever.Bestsellers in DVD
