I looove the ken burns specials! I also really liked an older doc called Surviving the Dust Bowl. I found the first hand accounts so immersive mostly bc they told stories from their childhood perspective. "Daddy" instead of "my father".

I also watched a few on the polio outbreaks in the early 20th century bc my grandmother had polio as a child and post polio as an older adult. That rocked my world. I actually never knew much about it.

Omg that timeline is amazing!!! When I get home I'll check to see if my PBS app shows that.
