Review:

For the past three nights, we've been watching this great documentary. One of my goals is to watch all the Ken Burns documentaries. I've watched a fair amount, but never this particular one. I do love me some U.S. History. Even though I have a fair amount of knowledge about the time before, during, and after Prohibition, I learned a lot watching the documentary. Very enjoyable few nights of TV viewing.
