Product Description

THE PRESIDENTS is an unprecedented eight-part survey of the personal lives and legacies of the remarkable men who have presided over the Oval Office. From George Washington to George W. Bush, THE PRESIDENTS gathers together vivid snapshots of all 43 Commanders in Chief who have guided America throughout its history--their powerful personalities, weaknesses, and major achievements or historical insignificance. Based on the book To the Best of My Ability, edited by Pulitzer Prize-winner James McPherson, THE PRESIDENTS features rare and unseen photographs and footage, unexpected insight and trivia from journalists, scholars, and politicians such as Walter Cronkite, David Brinkley, Wesley Clark, Bob Dole, and former President Jimmy Carter. Viewed within the changing contexts of each administration, the Presidency has never seemed more compelling and human. Narrated by Edward Herrmann (The Aviator), this three-DVD set is a proud addition to the award-winning documentary tradition of THE HISTORY CHANNEL®. DVD Features: Feature-length Bonus Program "All The Presidents' Wives"; Timeline of U.S. Presidents; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection

This is my second set. I have used it to teach U.S. History. Great attention getter in just a few moments. The history and details are great, grabbing attention with well-presented methods. Will continue to use it to challenge my students in the future.

I am a high school social studies teacher and I purchased this set after using my media center's copy. I liked it so much that I wanted to make sure I had my own copy to use forever! The videos are great - very kid-friendly without being corny. Each video is short (I want to say no more than 10 mins. each), colorful, with lots of pictures, with music, and has an interesting narrator. I also like that they include little known trivia facts about each president. It is easy to create questions for students to answer just by listening to the video and I would recommend it for low level up to average level students as an assignment or with upper level students as an introduction to a unit or president. It is appropriate for 5th-6th grade all the way up to 12th grade.

Saw most of the series in a marathon on History Channel. Loved it but due to its legenth I had to delete it from my DVR because it was taking up too much space. So happy to find it on Amazon for such a low price. They do a good job hitting the important parts of each Presidents term though time as always limits how much they can put in the series. Perfect for those who want a brief recap of history and to learn a little bit about everyone but may not be informative enough for those who want in depth information on certain presidents. I highly recommend this series for practically anyone.

It was in one of my political science classes where we watched this that I knew I had to have my own copy. For the price this is a very good documentary on the US Presidents. For each president you are introduced to them with basic facts followed by a discussion of their major accomplishments as US President. Being produced by the History Channel this is a good quality documentary with great factual information. This DVD set offers bonuses not included on TV such as the All The Presidents' Wives feature and the Timeline of U.S. Presidents.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating, but not the greatest source of information
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2008

The History Channel has once again made a pretty good documentary and view of our 43 presidential administrations. It kept me glued to the t.v. the entire time and really gave lots of information about the president's personal lives that a lot of people wouldn't originally know. However, I was sort of expecting it to focus more along the lines of a detailed background of their policies and accomplishments of their administrations, not their personal life.
The History Channel's "The Presidents" is a very interesting film, but if you are planning on using this in a classroom, I wouldn't bother because it doesn't focus on the most important information and the high points of their lives. If you are just interested in other aspects of our president's lives, the I would definitely recommend this for you to watch. It will be worth your time.

The History Channel has done it again! If anyone remembers having to study the Presidents, it was always difficult. I wish this DVD was available when I was studying in school. This DVD makes the learning of the Presidents very easy, entertaining and very informative. It is not like the old films that you had to watch in school which would always make you sleepy and eventually I would forget what I had watched. This is great for any student and even for adults that may need an update on previous leaders of the United States.

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting things about our US presidents

I have had a number of very good educational films from the History Channel. This collection of brief stories about our 43 US presidents is a good starting point in understanding who these presidents were and how they contributed to the building of our nation. The write up on each president might be brief but each story contains some key pieces of information that stands out. I recommend this collection to students who want to get a leg up on understanding who our US presidents were and the period of time during which they serve our country.
