A must-have for Civil War buffs, HISTORY™ presents the weapons, heroes, and battles they didn’t tell you about in school
Even today, almost 150 years after Lee’s surrender at AppomattoxCourt House, unexpected secrets and little known stories continue to emerge from Civil War history. In SECRETS OF THE CIVIL WAR, a 4-DVD set from HISTORY™, archival letters, original diary entries, sophisticated cinematic reenactments, and interviews with the country’s mostrenowned historians bring these buried events vividly to life. In the cavalry charge at Mine Creek in Kansas, it took only 30 minutes for 2,800 Union troops to defeat an enemy force more than double in size, and yet, few people have heard of it. The same can be said of a Confederate raid on Vermont and an attempt by Union coal miners to blow up a Southern fort by tunneling underneath it.
Each of these nine exhilarating programs explores incidents notcovered in textbooks or lecture halls, the ones that add excitement, meaning, and nuance to history. Documentaries include: "The Most Daring Mission of the Civil War", "April 1865", "Battlefield Detectives: The Civil War: Antietam", "Battlefield Detectives: The Civil War: Gettysburg", "Battlefield Detectives: The Civil War: Shiloh," "Secret Missions of the Civil War," "The Lost Battle of the Civil War," "Guns of the Civil War" and "Eighty Acres of Hell".
Once you’ve watched SECRETS OF THE CIVIL WAR, the Battle Between the States will never look the same.
