Each film in the 'Famous Moments' series highlights a true story of historical significance, providing 'students' of early America with a better understanding of the people, places and events of this important era.
</p> <P>
Of added interest for viewers, each film tells its story using scenes and portraits from the <A href="http://www.earlyamericanimages.com/" set="yes">Early American Digital Library</A>. Many of the images are primary source documents — engravings, woodcuts and drawings that date back to the early to mid-1800s.
</p> <P>
All of the films can be downloaded using a 56k modem except The Life of George Washington and The Ben Franklin Story, both of which require a high-speed connection such as DSL or cable/modem.
