Blood and Fury America's Civil War

In July 1861, untested and poorly-trained Union and Confederate troops clash in the first real battle of the Civil War. Thousands will be killed or wounded as a shocked nation descends into four years of unimaginable violence.

In September 1862, following a string of victories in Virginia, Confederate military genius General Robert E. Lee brings his army north in a bold attempt to end the Civil War and win Southern independence.

In December, 1862, following the strategic Union win at Antietam, Federal forces clash with a massive rebel army in the town of Fredericksburg, Virginia, in what will become the largest fight of the Civil War.

In July, 1863, an elite band of Yankee sharpshooters must stop Robert E. Lee’s Alabamian shock troops from flanking the Union line, winning the battle of Gettysburg and perhaps the entire Civil War.

December, 1864: In a daring attempt to regain the upper hand in the Civil War, Confederate forces try to retake the city of Nashville and sever the supply line that's feeding the Union invasion of the South.

In April, 1865, the Union invasion of the South has ground to a halt at the seemingly impregnable ring of trenches built around Petersburg, Virginia. Two officers from Vermont will lead a daring raid to try and end the stalemate.
