Blood and Glory: The Civil War in Color - Season 1 Episode 1

The Civil War, one of the most defining moments in American history, tore the nation apart, pitting North against South–brother against brother.

BLOOD AND GLORY: THE CIVIL WAR IN COLOR brings this important historical event to life in a two-part documentary special as never seen before. With unprecedented access to government and private archives and using state-of-the-art technology, over 500 rare and compelling black and white photographs have been painstakingly colorized to illustrate the story of the Civil War in breathtaking detail.
