500 Nations Editorial Review:
500 Nations is an eight-part documentary that explores the history of the indigenous peoples of North and Central America, from pre-Colombian times through the period of European contact and colonization, to the end of the 19th century and the subjugation of the Plains Indians of North America. 500 Nations utilizes historical texts, eyewitness accounts, pictorial sources and computer graphic reconstructions to explore the magnificent civilizations which flourished prior to contact with Western civilization, and to tell the dramatic and tragic story of the Native American nations' desperate attempts to retain their way of life against overwhelming odds.

The Ultimate study of the Indian people
I have the soundtrack to 500 Nations that I purchased years ago(1995) when this documentary film on tribes of Indians from all over the world was released. Both the film and the music are fantastic. 500 Nations looks at every facet of Indian life using archive film,computer graphics,location filming,and interviews with these wonderful people who are the first Americans. A must buy for anyone who is interested in history.

CD
The disturbing topic was well handled and very interesting. Good quality cd's which arrived in good time

A Story Told the Way It Should Haven Been
500 Nations is a wonderful documentary about our native people here in the US of A. It's Native American history told in the truest sense---not cowboys and Indians as written by those who had no idea. Being Native myself I'm lending this set of cd's to my son and asking him to have my granddaughters sit and watch this--then it's off to my youngest grandson. I want my grandchildren to know the "real" history of the Native people in America.

Very informative
This movie is very informative. Slow but this movie explains alot. Good to watch if you want to learn thing. it is very slow and you have to pay attention. But a good movie.

Eye-opening experience
We have just finished watching the entire series, and I had to come and rate it 5 stars. It was highly educational for our family. I could type all day and not cover the range of emotions that 500 Nations has stirred inside me. My 8-year-old son was able to understand most of it, and it was much more education about what REALLY happened than I ever received in school. I will continue to recommend this series, for years to come.
