The Cost of Freedom
The first Civil War battle fought on northern soil, the epic 14-hour Battle of Antietam - fought at Sharpsburg, Maryland - resulted in more than 22,000 casualties and remains the single bloodiest day in American history.
Through first-person accounts and dramatic reenactments, this program - narrated by Robert Maxwell - vividly brings to life the events and battle that changed the course of the Civil War, from President Abraham Lincoln's desire for a victory in order to issue the Emancipation Proclamation and Gen. Robert E. Lee's plan of invading the North falling into the hands of the Union Army to the bloody battle of September 17, 1862. Widescreen, color, Dolby Digital 2.0, 1 hr. 30 min. #0CV8400
