Produced by the National Park Service, this program takes viewers out to the fields of battle and follows the decisions of three men (two Union and one Confederate) to join an army, fight the enemy and eventually die at a place called Gettysburg. The process of burials, identification of bodies, and the reinterment of thousands of Americans transitions our story to the fourth man, President Abraham Lincoln. He decides to visit Gettysburg to dedicate a national cemetery with his 272-word Gettysburg Address, both honoring the dead and challenging the living.
