A Timeless SeriesMay 18, 2010 Disney's True-Life Adventure Series is truly timeless! It is sad to hear that they have stopped producing them. They are a wonderful way for children, particularly urban children, to learn about the natural world in which they live. I used them extensively with my primary level students and they always enjoyed them AND they always learned something new each time they saw one of the episodes. Winston Hibler's narration is perfect. Every grandparent should have this whole set to show their young grandchildren.
Last ChanceMar 19, 2010 We all know about The short window for Disney DVDs. The Legacy Collection is no exception. This great series is already "out of stock" for Volumes 1 and 4. They are now only available from specialist collectors- at much higher prices of course. You can still obtain Volumes 2 and Volume 3 at reasonable Amazon Prices- for now!
Dont procrastinate- do it!
This collection was put together by the recently deceased(2009)Roy Disney. It is an awesome legacy. As a "baby boomer" child, I was fortunate enough to be taken to the movies to see them by my father. This offering is one of the best featuring The African Lion, Jungle Cat(Jaguars),Bear Country, and the Olympic Elk. Bear Country won an Oscar. The collection features an informative intro by Legend Roy Disney and great behind the scenes footage.
Get this True Legacy while you still can!

Walt Disney Legacy Collection - True Life Adventures, Vol 3Aug 20, 2009 I bought this for the Olympic Elk segment because I had heard so much about it as a kid and read an amazing book about the Crisler's who filmed that segment. It lived up to my expectations. It was stunning, especially considering it was filmed in color in 1951 or 1952. The other segments are equally stunning. This is both classic Disney and stunning outdoor photography, totally unstaged, of wild animals in their environment and the stunninly beautiful envirnonment itself. If you want to see what the remote parts of the Olympic Mountains look like this is it.

Olympic Elk is a family classicDec 09, 2008 My father referred to the classic Disney film "Olympic Elk" for several years. When the video finally became available on DVD, I bought a copy for him, and one for myself.
This film follows the life cycle of the elk which reside in Olympic National Park. The animal photography is excellent, especially considering the time it was produced. The remote setting is stunning. I visited the area with my son in 2007. We saw several elk ourselves, while there. Watching this video brings back special memories of that trip.
Don't miss this classic family film.
