PBS Documentary: Death and the American Civil War

Posted on September 3, 2016

The Civil War was fought in the United States from 1861 to 1865. There were between 600,000 to 750,000 dead soldiers, more American deaths than World War I and World War II combined.

 

This is a powerful documentary on how both sides handled these deaths from grieving love ones to the creation of federal agencies to deal with this massive loss of life that totally devastated a nation.
