An intimate and enduring testimony of the soldiers of North and South, themselves captives of the incredible experience called The Civil War.

With 3-cent postage stamps and an incredibly effective delivery system, mail streamed from Civil War soldiers to their loved ones. Mail packets even crossed enemy lines. A surprising number of soldiers could write, and they filled countless letters and journals. They described with painstaking accuracy the bloody scenes of battle, their feelings and ideals, their doubts and desperation. From the writings of seasoned officers and raw recruits, this audio dramatization will open the hearts and minds of those who fought—and some who died—to offer insight into the shattering human toll of the Civil War.
