Heritage Over Land, a 12-part documentary series about the restoration of the South, was funded primarily by Alfred P. Sloan's foundation. Sloan was the CEO and President of the General Motors.

 

With Henry Cassidy as the correspondent, the show presented interviews of ordinary Americans from the South. They were asked to describe the impact of economic, social, and industrial revolution that was occurring in their area during the early part of the 20th century.

 ABOUT OLD TIME RADIO
The buzz-term for Old Time Radio is "OTR". OTR usually means radio broadcasting from the golden age of radio, mostly before 1964.These shows from the pre-television age include adventure, comedies, mystery shows, western dramas and shows from World War II. These programs feature the best talent of the day and were broadcast nearly as widely as cable programs today. And just like TV today, families would gather around their crystal radio sets to enjoy the entertainment together.
