The Civil War went one for a long time, and changed the face of America in doing so.  I’ve seen many movies, watched many a mini-series, and read many books on the subject, but it wasn’t until I saw this video that I got a full grasp of the ebb and flow. You hear about the battle of this and that.  You read how one minute a city would be owned by the Union, and next by the Confederates.  And the whole time you nod your head and go hmmm.

I don’t know who did this video, but here is the entire Civil War in only 4 minutes.
