 "It is well that war is so terrible - otherwise we should grow too fond of it." - ROBERT E. LEE

Romance still surrounds the brave but doomed Confederate Army of the American Civil War, and in particular, Robert E. Lee's army of Northern Virginia. Lee was a brilliant military tactician and an outstanding leader of men, as well as a humane and compassionate man with a deep love for his wife and family. This is the story of how Lee's ragbag army came within a whisker of defeating their Federal enemies.

Featuring large-scale battle reconstructions, dramatised "eye-witness" accounts and expert analysis this DVD provides a unique insight into the life of the Rebel Army from the optimistic days of 1861 to the emotional but timely surrender in 1865. Narrated by Bob Sessions & Billy J Mitchell
