   Incredibly sentimental, almost to a fault, but still one of the most comprehensive and compelling depictions of the war to date. Happy to see it on some lists here. 10 years 2 months ago

   I was impressed with the filming and archival footage and photography. The narrative was impressive with the balanced coverage of both sides. I learned in the documentary that Lincoln was just another politician and not the advocate of emancipation as purported. I have a lot of questions that are still outstanding. How many lives were truly lost through the war. Not just those of soldiers. There is no mention of violence, rape and murder of the ordinary civilians by soldiers. How could you talk about a nation at war but not speak of the indigenous population except of a politician"s quote "A good Indian is a dead Indian" 2 years 10 months ago
