Old New World: America Preserved

on BBC Two England

The second of three programmes in which popular historian Lucinda Lambton tours America in search of the traditions and heritage that have survived into the 21st century.
This week's destinations include a working 18th-century nail factory in Massachusetts, the oldest country store in Kentucky, the Mohonk Mountain House on the Hudson River, a preserved 1840s department store in Memphis, and the garden district of New Orleans. There's also a trip to an all-black wedding ceremony in Nottaway, ironically the largest plantation house in Louisiana. Director/Producer Alex Harvey
