  • "Abraham Lincoln and George McClellan become political apponents in the 1864 election. With Grant stymied at Petersburg and Sherman stalled at Atlanta, opinion in the North has turned strongly against the war. Victories at Mobile Bay, Atlanta and the Shenandoah Valley, however, tilt the election to Lincoln, and the Confederacy's last hope for independence dies. Lee's estate at Arlington, Virginia becomes Arlington National Cimetery."@en
  • "This episodes begins with the presidential campaign of 1864 that set Lincoln against his old commanding general, George McClellan. The stakes are nothing less than the survival of the Union itself: with Grant and Sherman stalled at Petersburg and Atlanta, opinion in the North has turned strongly against Lincoln and the war. But eleventh hour Union victories at Mobile Bay, Atlanta and the Shenandoah Valley tilt the election to Lincoln, and the Confederacy's last hope for independence dies. The episode also examines the prison camps, and the role of spies in the war effort. In an ironic twist, Lee's Arlington mansion is turned into a Union military hospital and the estate becomes Arlington National Cemetery--the Union's most hallowed ground."@en
  • "The stage is set for war as the nation begins to tear apart. Opposition by the North to slavery in the South fuels a bitter debate, and the country wrestles with conflicts between the Union and States' rights."@en
