Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Civil War: The Fiery Trial recounts the enduring drama of America's bloodiest conflict. From Fort Sumter to Appomattox, this documentary tells the entire story of the war. On-site photography at more than a dozen battlefield parks puts the viewer on those fields of fire where the fate of the nation was decided. Archival photographs, Civil War art, handsome maps and period music bring to life the war's major campaigns, battles and leaders.

This review is from: Civil War: The Fiery Trial [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The "Fiery Trial" brings an exquisite soundtrack that will delight civil war music lovers. From an historical point of view, a good but very short summary of the war.It lacks of detail and prints or photographs from the era. When it treats the battles it only shows the actual battlefield from the State Park. It is a 30 minutes overview that will not add you interesting information.
