A companion to the phenomenaIly successful Great British RaiIway Journeys, this series sees Michael PortilIo swapping his treasured copy of Bradshaw's handbook for its stateside counterpart an 1879 edition of AppIeton's guidebook to the raiIroads of America and Canada.
This four-DVD set features twenty episodes covering two different journeys:
St. Louis, Missouri, to the Grand Canyon
The Twin Cities to Memphis
MichaeI makes two epic journeys through the United States: his first foIlows the traiI of 19th-century European pioneers, beginning in St Louis, Missouri, and ending with an awe-inspiring bird's-eye view of the Grand Canyon; the second journey begins with Minnesota's Twin Cities, takes in the modern metropoIis of Chicago and and ends in Memphis, Tennessee.
Along the way Michael gets a taste of the Old West in Dodge City, conducts a cattle auction in Kansas, visits the birthpIace of F. Scott FitzgeraId in St Paul, Minnesota, and learns of a musicaI dream made reaIity in Santa Fe; he also finds time to savour New Mexico's delectabIy fiery cuisine and immerses himself in the culture and history of the continent's first inhabitants: the Native Americans. |
