Lesson PowerPoint: The Civil War - Introduction

This updated version of the video addresses YouTube’s previous age-restriction that was based on graphic scenes that we have identified and replaced with relevant content. An age restriction limits the audience we may reach. Our goal is to make this content available to the widest audience possible—especially students.
The American Battlefield Trust preserves America’s hallowed battlegrounds and educates the public about what happened there and why it matters. We permanently protect these battlefields for future generations as a lasting and tangible memorial to the brave soldiers who fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Civil War.
