THE CIVIL WAR

Ken Burns'epic documentary brings to life America's most destructive — and defining — conflict. Sunday, December 13th at 8:00 p.m. on PBS-HD. by Colleen Greer

The Civil War was fought in 10,000 places, from Valverde, New Mexico, and Tullahoma, Tennessee, to St. Albans, Vermont, and Fernandina on the Florida coast. More than 3 million Americans fought in it, and over 600,000 men, 2 percent of the population, died in it.
