The Civil War was his first one and best remembered, Baseball was another and one on Jazz. Not much moving picture from the civil war days but lots of photos and letters recited. More action in the Jazz and Baseball docos but still done on the smell of an oily rag. Do a google on his name and film titles. You should be able to find them on You Tube etc. Check them out.
His name is Ken Burns.
