I was looking forward to this set, and I must say that I would not have bought it had I know how poorly produced it was. The styles are inconsistent between discs, and the content is less than that of an average level history book. The first disc must have been aimed at grade school as the narrator seemed to be lecturing either young or feeble minds. Do not waste your money. Look at a Visual History of the World by Brinkley. It is what this series should have been.
