Availability information for this program

Travel back in time more than a century, and break trail into uncharted landscapes to meet three of the men who captured images of a land considered a mystery by most Americans: William Henry Jackson, Jack Hillers, and Timothy O'Sullivan. See the West undergo dramatic changes as photographers document the transformation of the landscape... and the transformation of the Native Americans who were deemed roadblocks to progress.
