Narrated by Keith Carradine, Gettysburg and Stories of Valor - CIVIL WAR MINUTES III focuses on one of the most exciting periods in United States history, America's Civil War. This 3-hour documentary captures the scenic beauty of the Gettysburg battlefield, examines rare Civil War artifacts and tells the personal stories of the men who fought in the war.

The most famous and perhaps most important conflict of the Civil War occurred July 1st, 2nd and 3rd of 1863 in the small town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. A thriving rural community of 2,400 people and the home of Pennsylvania College, some of the finest, prosperous farms can be found there. The quiet town transforms into a war zone as the South invades a Northern state for the first time, colliding at the Battle of Gettysburg. This move of bold aggression is a key turning point in the war and forever changes the course of American history.

Exploring a wide variety of Civil War practices, Gettysburg and Stories of Valor - CIVIL WAR MINUTES III connects viewers with a past that remains relevant today. The varying conditions of Federal and Confederate prisoner of war camps, actual samples of soldiers' clothing and medical procedures are examined.
