Ken Burns' The Civil War: A Film Directed By Ken Burns (VHS, 1990)

First of all, I need to apologize for my tardiness in this review: this purchase was a Christmas gift for my mother, 82 years old. Therein, lies my delay in writing.
I needed this gift to be in video, not DVD form. I checked Amazon.com etc and was appalled at the prices. When I found this in EBAY, I picked it up immediately: due to the cost (mimimal) and also because, it was in video format. The purchase was received very quickly. It was also identified as the 2nd and 9th tape being brand new, which appeared to me as well upon receipt.
My mother is now watching the 2nd video. She is enthralled by this show and can't believe I found it. Actually, neither can I. The tapes are in good condition and she is able to watch the show at her leisure. Not at the networks leisure, as she missed so much years ago, on television.
Thank you EBAY and also to the seller. Once my mom has finished, she has 2 people in line to watch the series. That leaves me third in line. Which works fine for me. I'll have to wait less time than she had to wait.
Bottom line: Excellent on all accounts.
Sincerely,
Linda Vesco
