History Channel The History Channel continues to improve upon the entertainment level of each new documentary that it produces. This ten part series examines very distinct turning points in US history that are pivotal to us as a people and a culture. It is a very cerebral and intelligent look at how seemingly minute coincidences and human decisions affect the course and flow of major human events. This is a huge and bold documentary undertaking that will prove to be as significant a work as such titles in line with "Eyes on the Prize" and the "Ten Thousand Day War." This program series is epic in scope and quality.
This
series is the most ambitious original programming event in THC
history, "10
Days That Unexpectedly Changed America" encompasses 10 days in
American history as envisioned through ten powerful documentaries that are
written, produced and directed by 10 award-winning filmmakers.

important” days in U.S. history, but to select days that represent the
broad themes that ultimately shaped America’s people, culture and
history.
We give this program an enthusiastic 5 of 5 Herodoti
