Very civilized set!
This is a Father's Day gift from our cats to my husband. I know he's going to love it. He saw one episode on TV a few weeks ago and was wishing for the whole set. Now he'll have it to watch at his leisure. It looks great and I was pleasantly surprised to find the booklet is included. That's often not the case. It arrived quickly and well-packaged. The cats and I thank you profusely.

Delightful, beautiful
This DVD series is pure desert in this troubled, chaotic world we live in. I am sure I will watch it again and again. Beautiful art and architecture portray the distinct epochs of history. I order another set for a handicapped friend who is indoors a lot and he loved it too.

Classic and always fascinating!
This is a classic series about the most important works of Western civilisation that is very educational and entertaining at the same time! Clark is eloquent and hugely knowledgeable. This is worth every dollar.

Like a College Course You Love
This survey of art history is the personal view of Lord Kenneth Clark, but one could not ask for a better guide. Clark's art background is vast, and he is personable and funny at times. This excellent series is like one of the college courses you loved.
