This morning I caught the tail end of a program called "The Adventure of English" broadcast here on The History Channel. (To be more precise, it was the Sunday morning preview of the History Channel's sister network History International.) The show was very interesting, and apparently this morning's broadcast was part six of a series, as the History Channel's schedule lists part 7 to be shown next week at 7:00 AM Eastern time.

There is a book by the same name on which I suspect the series is based. I can't seem to find any DVDs of the series at Netflix or Amazon. Anyway, I think the program would appeal to my fellow AWAD readers.
