Description
Lincoln, trial by fire: Lincoln, facing the crisis of a divided nation, was forced to turn for help to General George McClellan, who supported Southern positions on slavery and states' rights. The conflict between Lincoln and McClellan was intense from the start and before their uneasy partnership ended it became one of the strangest stories in American history.

Description
No retreat from destiny: the true story of the Confederacy's last great invasion of the north, in July 1864, the subsequent attack on Washington, D.C. that almost brought the northern war effort to its knees, and how the invasion was stopped at the Battle of Monocacy.
Description
Lincoln's last night: This two-part docu-drama tells the story of Abraham Lincoln and his murderer John Wilkes Booth.
Description
Fired by liberty: a live-action documentary on the lives and stories of African-American soldiers who fought during the Civil War, both the United States Colored Troops for the Union and the rarely discussed Blacks who fought for the Confederacy.
Description
Abraham Lincoln: This Lincoln was one of the great talking films of the post-silent film era. These brief vignettes about Lincoln's early life include his birth, early jobs, his affair with Ann Rutledge, his courtship of Mary Todd and the Lincoln/Douglas debates. His presidency and the Civil War are followed in more detail, and the film concludes with the assassination.
Description
Yellowneck: This story centers on five "Yellownecks", deserters of the Confederate Army, who plan to escape to Cuba via the Florida Everglades. While traveling through the treacherous swamp, the men are faced with danger from alligators, snakes, insects and angry Seminoles. Hoping to reach the coast and a waiting boat to take them to freedom, the men race against time and battle their obstacles and each other in order to make it to safety.
