Lincoln and Lee at
Antietam
and the Cost of Freedom
It’s September 17, 1862 and President Abraham Lincoln needs a victory
in order to issue the Emancipation Proclamation
and end slavery in the South. But
Robert E. Lee has other plans - invade the North. The Battle of Antietam
results in more casualties than the American Revolution, the War
of 1812, the Mexican War and the Spanish American War
combined. In fact, the bloodiest day of World War II, D-Day, amounts
to only one quarter of the casualties suffered at Antietam.
This is a 4 minute clip of a video by the same
name, narrated by Ronald F.
Maxwell, director of the epic Civil War films Gettysburg.
