I have been watching it to even though I own the DVDs and watched innumerable times. After watching the DVDs, I read the book and I have to say the mini-series is far, far, far better. For example, my favorite part of the series is when Speirs runs through Foy (that still sends chills through my spine) and Ambrose describes in the most mundane and drab fashion imaginable. I learned much, much more from the series than from the book. Just my 2 cents.
