Into The West (DVD)

Set in the old West, this 12-hour television mini-series aired on TNT in the form of six two-hour installments, each featuring a different director. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, INTO THE WEST tells the epic story of westward expansion from the contrasting perspectives of a Native American family and a family of white settlers from the East. As both multi-generational families struggle with the new realities that western development entails, viewers are offered a glimpse into a highly dynamic era.

"I have wanted this series for a long time and finally broke down and purchased it. Overstock had a good price. My 10 yr old and I have been watching the series together and he is really into it. Also it gives him some ideas on the history of the west in a fun and engaging way. So glad I finally bought it - a great addition to anyone's library- something for everyone."

"Its not every day that we have the opportunity to see something truthful regarding the American Indian. Worth watching, really sad to see what one man can do to another. However, the culltural aspects of the Indian were well covered. A really great value."

"This is an excellent DVD set to own. It portrays our nation's history quite well. If you are getting this for a gift order early. Normally it takes a few days for my overstock orders to come in. This took 3 weeks. I do not know if that is because it was media mail or not; however, plan on a long delivery time for this."
