The American Civil War
DVD - 2014
This comprehensive set creates a vivid portrait of America's greatest internal crisis, from the first antislavery protests to Lee's surrender at Appomattox, 150 years ago on April 9, 1865. Along the way, it examines the moral, political, and strategic forces that set brother against brother for more than four years, in what is generally understood to be the first modern war.
