Review

"The technical improvements to the film, including a new resolution that restores parts of images that were cropped away for the original TV broadcast, may be most interesting to hard-core film fans. But even casual viewers will be able to see that the remastered version of "The Civil War" is a strikingly different film from the movie that preceded it." --Washington Post

" …(The Civil War) is most likely the most significant historical documentary PBS has ever done". --The New York Times

"The extras are near as potent as the main event." --The Washington Times
