Reminisce Through The Decades - The 1940s

Review "Breathtaking in its scope, Reminisce Through the Decades -- The 1940s is a true epic that touches the very heart of human experiences. Powerful in it's delivery of stories and photographs, and enhanced by timely music, it speaks well of a time in American history when we were one as a nation. The 1940s DVDs are a triumph in storytelling." --Janet Stokes CEO, The Film Advisory Board Superb job of combining all aspects of the times. Humor, jobs, family, hardship, rewards, in one package America. I would absolutely recommend The 1940s for a real, first person view of America during a tumultuous era. Don't you dare miss this presentation. --Albert Cooley This show has integrity! Very enjoyable with all the emotions from the point of view of a child. I was born in 1940 but I remember events and emotions very clearly the last few years of the 40s. The video brings back plenty of good memories and emotions. Something to have to pass down through the generations. --Elizabeth Wyant About the Actor The actors for the video series are Reminisce Magazine readers who shared their personal memories of hopes, uncertainties, sacrifices and everday routines of war and peace during the 1940s.
