Baseball – A Film by Ken Burns [VHS] $17.99 After the national success of his 11-hour epic, The Civil War–the highest-rated miniseries in public-television history–many wondered if Ken Burns could capture the same energy and passion with smaller subjects. His reply, the 18-hour history of America’s greatest sport, Baseball, not only quieted these worries, it also perhaps surpassed his prior achievement. Massive in scope (it covers more th… |

Ken Burns: Prohibition $20.57 It’s hard to comprehend now, but nearly a century ago, Americans were denied both the pleasures and evils of alcohol for a period of almost 14 years–a strange and tumultuous time chronicled in edifying detail in Ken Burns and Lynn Novick’s Prohibition, a three-part (and three-disc) documentary first broadcast by PBS. Part One, “A Nation of Drunkards,” contemplates the lead-up to Prohibition. And … |

Baseball: A Film By Ken Burns – Original Soundtrack Recording $4.50 Hailed as perhaps the greatest filmed document in the history of the sport, Ken Burns’s epic series chronicled more than a century’s worth of baseball lore. The producers paid nearly as much attention to the audio as the stunning visuals, but this soundtrack is slightly uneven. Baseball errs on the side of good taste a bit too often, what with contributions from Bruce Hornsby, Carly Simon, and Nat… |

Jazz: A History of America’s Music $27.95 First off, let’s get the kudos down: Geoffrey C. Ward and Ken Burns deserve far more than simple gratitude for bringing jazz to the limelight with this lavishly illustrated volume. The book features among its 500-plus pictures many of the previously unseen shots of musicians and venues glimpsed in Burns’s 10-part documentary, Jazz.
