See the birth of modern warfare and Lincoln’s war to preserve the Union transform into a war to emancipate the slaves. Follow the battle of ironclad ships, camp life and the beginning of the end of slavery. Re-live the war’s bloodiest day, on the banks of Antietam Creek, and the brightest: the emancipation of the slaves.
Richmond falls to Grant's army, Lee surrenders, Lincoln is assassinated, and the war ends.

Follow the Battle of Gettysburg, draft riots, and the first African-American troops.
