5.0 out of 5 stars
Gettysburg Civilians (CWJ),
By Richard Reed (Lakewood, Colorado, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Civil War Journal: The Gettysburg Citizens [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is an outstanding video; the best from a number of videos in the Civil War Journal series. The true and poignant stories of Tillie Pierce Alleman, Jennie Wade, John Burns et al, receive the recognition and treatment they deserve in this film. The unnamed young actress portraying Tillie Pierce is especially believable and effective in the role. The narration provided by Woody Christ, Greg Coco, et al, also is very well-done. This is a superb addition to the film libraries of Civil War enthusiasts...to be watched again and again.

This review is from: Civil War Journal: The Gettysburg Citizens [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is an interesting and many times overlooked part of the Civil War that carries tons of information. This video takes a civilian look at the battle and the horrible aftermath at Gettysburg. It covers several townspeople and shares their stories of helping and providing for the wounded while trying to make sense of the chaos at their doorstep. It also brings forth the handling of medical care and also how the Gettysburg National Cemetery was constructed where Lincoln gave his Gettysburg address. True to the rest of the Civil War Journal Series, this video is backed by informative narration and key interviews with leading Civil War Historians.
