Pretty sure you don't. Everything was trying to kill you...white men, disease, starvation, bears, exposure... yes, a magical time and way to live. :/
SS77 Recently I watched a video titled - AMERICA THE STORY OF US - History Channel TV Series DVD. By far, it's the best doco on the US I've seen for sometime and has plenty of info that I'm sure you'd enjoy viewing. Also If you are interested in the Australian Aboriginal culture, I can recommend 3 videos. * The Last Of The Nomads - Ronin Films * Desert People - produced by FilmAustralia * Walkabout 1974 - also by FilmAustralia Miscellaneous videos that you might like: * Baraka * Wild China - BBC H
