CIVIL WAR - DISC FOUR

Episode Six - VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH: A biographical comparison of Grant and Lee sets the stage for the extraordinary series of battles that pitted the two against each other. Tours the ghastly hospitals North and South and Sherman's Atlanta campaign. Lincoln's chance for re-election begins to dim along with the likelihood of Union victory.

Episode Seven - MOST HALLOWED GROUND, 1864: Begins with Lincoln's Presidential campaign against his old commanding general, George McClellan. The stakes are the survival of the Union itself. Eleventh hour victories at Mobile Bay, Atlanta, and Shenandoah Valley tilt the election to Lincoln, and the Confederacy's last hope for independence dies. In an ironic twist, Lee's Arlington, Virginia Mansion is turned into a Union military hospital and the estate becomes Arlington National Cemetery - the Union's most hallowed ground.
