New York -- seven episode PBS set

City: New York, State: NY
- Another documentary masterpiece from the Burns family. From an Amazon reviewer: "I have just finished viewing the 6th Disc of the incredible journey of the greatest city in the world, and just had to share my excitement and disbelief at what I have been watching. Ric Burns does an extraordinary job of showing the history of New York from it's discovery by Henry Hudson to modern times. Each episode is addictive and compelling." (1998)
