The Civil War . . . in 4 minutes again

Filed under: Cooper Family by allmyanc

Update2: OK, here’s another website to see this great video. Thanks go to one of my descendants for finding and sharing this site.

Update: Evidently this wasn’t provided by the Lincoln library, at least knowingly. So the video is gone. Sorry. It was a great overview of the War.

I love this! And it even has the music!

Thanks to Abraham Lincoln President and Museum for making it available.

I’ve always been a “big picture” person, and this certainly provides one. On a personal level, it helps me understand more about the capture of the Arkansas Post, where my gggrandfather and 2 of his brothers were captured.

And it gives a whole new meaning to Sherman’s march to the sea.
