Silent movies - no sound whatsoever July 28, 2008

While the content is interesting, the film is very old and there is no sound at all. There are some title frames that describe each film segment but are short on details. If you are interested in this history, I suggest that you purchase "History of Westinghouse - An American Industrial Powerhouse DVD" instead. It has the same film clips but has been cleaned up a bit and has background music.
