Sorry I don't like Ken Burns much, Lefty Liberal, and find most of his work slanted and selective in presentation.
I will not waste 14 hours watching a love fest on the Roosevelt's.
At one time I was admirer of Teddy Roosevelt but that is gone and I now look at him as a rather immature boy who never grew up and most of his so called “Trust Busting” was smoke and mirrors and was actually carried out by William Taft. Turns out ole TR was in J. P. Morgan's back pocket.

I love TR, but not for the things he did in the White House. His days in the army and his explorations of the Amazon Basin after his presidency are truly inspiring. Read The River of Doubt, a great read about the man and his trip.
