Description
GETTYSBURG AND STORIES OF VALOR, narrated by actor Keith Carradine, focuses on one of the most critical periods in United States history, the Civil War. This documentary captures the scenic beauty of the Gettysburg battlefield and examines rare Civil War artifacts. Segments examine well-known and lesser-known stories from the battle: a war photographer who controversially staged bodies of dead "Union" soldiers five months following the actual battle; the assassination attempt on Union General Winfield Scott Hancock; Pickett's famous charge, and the dramatic tale of Confederate General Lewis Armistead. Exploring a wide variety of Civil War practices, GETTYSBURG AND STORIES OF VALOR connects viewers with a past that remains relevant today.
