Why did a half-million Americans walk from Missouri to Oregon? Were they escaping malaria? Seizing land from the British? Seeking out a better life? Classroom-friendly, The Oregon Trail is an easy-to-digest introduction to this historic route, to those who blazed and followed it, and to its pivotal impact on the shape of North America. Although the two-hour series is inefficiently divided between four separate cassettes, each half-hour program is conveniently divided into short two- to four-minute chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of the journey, perfect for fourth- to eighth-grade classroom viewing and discussion.

Excerpts from men and women's diaries, archival photos, and reenactments help the viewer feel what life must have been like on the trail, capturing the fear, heartbreak, and breathtaking sights early pioneers experienced. The videos dispel myths of Native American violence, explaining that the Cheyenne and Pawnee people were far more likely to offer assistance or trade with the pioneers than to attack them. The series avoids in-depth discussion of politics or placing the trail in a larger historical context, focusing instead on the elements that will be most interesting to students: Did more pioneers die from gunshot wounds or being run over by wagon wheels? Why were oxen better than horses? Why did kids walk instead of ride in the wagons? For anyone curious about what life was like on the Oregon Trail, this is a great, easy-to-follow introduction. --Tara Chace

Description

Created by a four-time Emmy-winning filmmaker, "The Oregon Trail" chronicles the great mid-1800s trek across the unsettled American West. One in ten pioneers died along the way; many walked the entire 2,000 miles barefoot; but in the end nearly a half-million Americans followed the ruts west in search of a better life. Rare photos, diary excerpts, and stunning footage tell a fascinating story of tragedy and triumph.

This program received first-place awards from the Broadcast Education Association, the Oregon-California Trails Association, and the prestigious Telly Awards.

The film provides a comprehensive overview of the Oregon Trail, including: Lewis and Clark, the Astorians, the Whitmans, the Great Migration of 1843, reasons behind the journey, life on the trail, and encounters with Native Americans. Plus, the program includes background on all the key sites along the way: Ash Hollow, Chimney Rock, Scotts Bluffs, Ft. Laramie, Independence Rock, South Pass, Ft. Bridger, Ft. Hall, Three-Island Crossing, Whitman Mission, Ft. Vancouver, Oregon City, and many more. Two hours in length--divided into 4 half-hour segments.

Description

Soothing Waters Videos has combined Digital Video technology with proven relaxation and stress reduction research to produce a DVD that is specially designed to invoke relaxation and stress-reduction in those who watch and listen to it. While not created with film-quality Panovision equipment, this DVD has been rated superior in video quality to most of the direct relaxation DVD and Video cassette competition according to our reviewers and awards.

Our DVD is called Soothing Waters - California and Oregon. This DVD has won extensive praise for its relaxing natural ocean wave sounds and its spectacular coastal vistas. It has also won two videography awards: The Communicator Awards, The Crystal Award of Distinction for Creativity/Videography; and The Grand Goldie Film Award for Excellence and Special Expertise.

Studies have shown that basic white noise can help you to relax. Ocean Wave sounds act as a wondrous refinement of this basic white noise. The beauty of waves washing against spectacular rocks and beaches, and of magnificent coastal vistas, further enhances your sense of well being. When these two elements -- the sound of the sea, and the beauty of the sea -- are combined, a special sense of euphoria can be created to help you to forget your troubles, to set aside your frustrations, to relax, and perhaps to sleep.

The soothing sounds and views of waves can help reduce stress and lower anxiety levels while promoting the body's natural relaxation response. It is important that the body have an opportunity to relax every day to avoid the stacking effect that can create high blood pressure. Relaxing sounds can help to lower blood pressure and pulse, which can significantly reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. Soothing Waters - California and Oregon was specifically created to reduce stress and promote good health, and to help you to relax.

Also Disappointed.......2006-04-04

The video quality is passable, but the sound is muddied and is often marred by low frequency rumbles from wind hitting the microphone. You'd be better off listening to a crashing waves CD and closing your eyes.

Great for relaxing before bed........2005-09-15

This DVD is my favorite for helping me relax when I am stressed out, or helping me go to sleep on nights when I find myself unable to sleep. As a relaxation help it rates a 5. But as
a nature experience I would rate it a 3, because it is almost exclusively ocean, without the variances of some seals or boats or other things going on it is just to boring for a nature film,
but wonderful,wonderful to relax and dream by.

Quite disappointed.......2004-05-30

I bought this DVD based on the high recommendations of the other reviewers. All I can say is that I was very disappointed in the quality of the video. I wanted something that would look beautiful on my 61 inch Samsung. Almost all of the shots seem to be slighly out of focus, as if they were shot with a cheap camera with a poor lens. I compared this DVD with various beach scenes in movies I have and the scenes in the movies look a lot better! Sure, they use high end film Panovision cameras, but that is the quality I was hoping for. This DVD will be in my next garage sale.

Relaxing DVD.......2004-03-19

Well photographed, this DVD delivers what it promises. It is what it says... soothing. For someone who likes to fall asleep with the television on, it is perfect. With its hypnotic ocean sounds, and lovely beaches, it tempts one to visit these places.

Soothing Views and Sounds of Ca. and Or. Coasts.......2003-12-26

I bought this video as it was highly recommended by a good friend of mine. My friend was right! "Soothing Waters - California and Oregon" contains scenes from many of the most beautiful places along the coast of these two states. Natural sounds of the pounding surf, birds and other animals, and even the wind, which a couple of other reviewers found disturbing, I enjoyed immensely as it gave me a feeling of actually being in these incredible places. All of the locations are captured beautifully on the video, but my personal favorites are the many long scenes of Point Lobos, as it holds many fond memories for me.

As I watch with my headset on to better hear the sounds, I am mesmerized and then completely relaxed, to the point of what I call "drifting," and a profound sense of peace drives the tension and anxieties of daily living right out of my mind and my body. I believe Mr. Keith succeeds admirably in his efforts to promote these tranquil feelings in his viewers.

Oregon Lighthouses.......2006-11-10

I wasn't completely satisifed with this DVD. I felt it could have oferred more Scenery of the Oregon Coastline.

wonderful.......2006-07-12

I bought this for my 8 year old son, who is fascinated with lighthouses. He has watched it many times. We have visited nearly every lighthouse in Oregon, Washington and California and this is an excellent addition to his collection. Thanks for a quality product (delivered in record time).

Great DVD.......2006-04-12

I really enjoyed this, because I went to Heceta Head Lighthouse almost four years ago. It is spectacular. The history is informative and the photography is beautiful. I would like to go down there again someday and check out more of the lighthouses there (Oregon has eight). I didn't care for the narrator's voice, though-that's the only downside.

Spectacular Photography, Great Narration & Music! Top Notch!.......2003-06-04

This splendid video will take you to the Oregon's wonderful coast and Lighthouses. It is spectacularly shot, dramatically written, and well produced. You will not be disappointed with the well read narration reminiscent of Charles Kuralt himself. The rich history is told dramatically told through historical photos, crisp images with dramatic lighting and even old ghost stories. The beautiful and relaxing soundtrack is written by the multi-talented filmmaker himself.

This is not your typical dry news documentary with average daylight photography and academic narration ... but rather a wonderful dramatic story of Oregon's lighthouses, their history, their beauty, and splendor. A must have for any lighthouse lover to add to their lighthouse collection!
