Hell on Wheels tells the epic story of post-Civil War America, focusing on a Confederate solider (Anson Mount) who sets out to exact revenge on the Union soldiers who have killed his wife. His journey takes him west to ‘Hell on Wheels,’ a dangerous, raucous, lawless melting pot of a town that travels with and services the construction of the first transcontinental railroad, an engineering feat unprecedented for its time. The series explores the railroad’s institutionalized greed and corruption, the immigrant experience, and the plight of the newly emancipated African-Americans during reconstruction. Over time, Hell on Wheels chronicles this potent turning point in American history, and how uncivilized the business of civilization can be.

Don’t watch S1, E1 unless you want to get irreversably hooked.
Then buy this whole series Blu-Ray package (or DVD if yoy have an older tv). This, about the building of the transcontenantal railroad is absolutely gripping! And if you look at the “Hell on Wheels” article on Wikapedia, you’ll find that the portrayals of the lead charactors are historically accurate.

El DVD viene con una limitación de visionado a la Región 1, válida para los USA y Canadá. Creo que se deberia advertir de una manera más destacada. Por eso procedà a su devolución. Una lástima porque la serie está muy bien, en su momento se pudo ver por una de las plataformas.
