America The Story of Us is an epic 12-hour television event that tells

the extraordinary story of how America was invented. With highly

realistic CGI animation, dramatic recreations and thoughtful

insights from some of America’s most respected artists,

business leaders, academics and intellectuals, it is

the first television event in nearly 40 years 

to present a comprehensive telling of America’s history.

Elaborate, ambitious and cinematic, America The Story of Us

will take you into the moments when Americans harnessed

technology to advance human progress, from the rigors of

linking the continent by transcontinental railroad–the internet

of its day– to triumphing over vertical space through the

construction of steel structured buildings to putting a man

on the moon. It is an intensive look at the people, places

and things that have shaped our nation, and the

tough and thrilling adventure that is

America’s400-year history.
