Ken Burns: Prohibition - Ken does it again.

This is an excellent six-hour presentation. I knew a lot about the time. Or at least I thought so until this presentation. The details and pictures bring time and problems to life. Now we can see the problems of this day as a reflection of prohibition and its side effects. A lot of information, well presented, gives you the feeling that you lived through that time. We have a strange collection of readers that you would never have guessed they would be: Patricia Clarkson John Lithgow Campbell Scott Sam Waterston Includes the following episodes: "A Nation of Drunkards." "A Nation of Scofflaws." "A Nation of Hypocrites." Narrator Peter Coyote Based on a book by Geoffrey C. Ward A PBS production
