Civil War Combat
Civil War Combat is a television series hosted by the History Channel from 1999 to 2003.[1] It described battles of the American Civil War in a graphic, realistic level. Veteran voice actor Tony Jay served as narrator.
The series included battles such as the Battle of Gettysburg, Battle of Cold Harbor, Battle of Shiloh, Battle of Chancellorsville, Battle of Antietam, Battle of Franklin, and Battle of the Crater at Petersburg.[2]
One of the objectives of the series was to associate people with lesser known regiments and commands. Another one was to provide little known facts of the fields of conflict and to also give an accurate portrayal of the bloodiness of the fighting of the day.
