Based on the popularity of the Horatio Hornblower series alone I would have thought this set would enjoy great sales and fabulous reviews! The third party prices for this collection are a steal, especially considering the caliber of programs included! Napoleon, Benedict Arnold, Shackleton, The Lost Battalion, Longitude, and of course Horatio Hornblower. You can't go wrong with this 14 disk set beautifully produced by the A&E (Arts & Entertainment) Channel.

This is most certainly a must have collection for even the casual A&E fan. This set contains six of A&E's best efforts at a modest price. A purchase from a third party source makes it a steal! What a cost effective way to begin your own A&E collection.

This package is worth having as part of every home movie collection. I loved the Longitude movie and learned a lot with it. Still have to see the rest, some twenty hours of masterpieces!

This is a fabulous DVD series with exceptional acting, cinematography, and costuming. Just fantastic!

If you want some DVD time, this is it. I so enjoyed it and I'm sharing it with friends.

Thanks so much

I just love this collection and A&E, as always, has come through wonderfully with a comprehensive and accurately vivid account of each story! A must for all history lovers!

We already have two of the films ("Napoleon" and "Longitude") in this collection and I'm looking forward to watching the rest. A&E puts a nice touch on everything they release onto DVD, so this new set should really be great for our whole family. Should also make a great Xmas gift, too.

We purchased the A&E Adventure Collection The A&E Adventure Collection (Benedict Arnold / Horatio Hornblower / Shackleton / Napoleon / The Lost Battalion / Longitude)believing it to be the continuation of the Horatio Hornblower episodes. We had previously purchased the first 7 installments and were excited to find additional episodes. However, on receipt, we were disappointed to discover that the collection was in fact some of the same episodes we already owned, with additional DVDs of other, unrelated movies. On reading the return policy, we discovered that the DVDs are not returnable unless they are unopened. However, without opening the package it is impossible to discover the deception. This was our first online purchase for Amazon. HUGELY disappointed!
