Gettysburg and Stories of Valor
Pickett's ChargeThis film, narrated by actor Keith Carradine, focuses on one of the most critical periods in United States history, the Civil War. This documentary captures the scenic beauty of the Gettysburg battlefield and examines rare Civil War artifacts. Segments examine well-known and lesser-known stories from the battle: a war photographer who controversially staged bodies of dead "Union" soldiers five months following the actual battle; the assassination attempt on Union General Winfield Scott Hancock; Pickett's famous charge; and the dramatic tale of Confederate General Lewis Armistead.
