Historical Documentaries
I have created more than thirty films exploring the history of Savannah, Georgia USA and the surrounding area. Just less than half of these were self-funded original films, and the remainder were produced under contract to various history museums, historical nonprofits, and archaeologists. Click on the names of the films the list below to watch them (or portions of them) on Youtube. You may see more samples and purchase copies of selected films at www.cosmosavannah.com.
