Summary:

Summer 1863, The Confederacy pushes north to Pennsylvania. Union division coverages to face them. Two great armies will clash at Gettysburg, site of a theology school. For 3 days, through such legendary actions as Little Round Top and Pickett's Charge, the fate of "one nation, indivisible" hangs in the balance. The bloodiest battle fought on American soil comes to the screen in a powerful production "about the strategies, calculations, mistakes, and heroism that turned the tide of the Civil Wata film Civil War buffs will find indispensable."
