A series of eight films exploring America and its botanical history. 2: Real Estates
In the still-smoking crater of Mount St Helens volcano, David Bellamy begins to piece together the story of how this newest bit of the New World is transformed into its most precious resource. His journey takes him through the rapids in the Grand Canyon, on to a giant staircase of time, and up and away in a balloon over California. There are clues in a pygmy forest, some more among the biggest trees in the world, and in a river bed at the top of a mountain; and finally the answer lies in the soil.
