The Crucible of Bull Run
Fonda opens his tale with the fateful First Battle of Bull Run on July 21, 1861. As the Union and Confederate armies clashed near Manassas Junction, Virginia, overconfidence and miscalculations on both sides created a bloody spectacle that ended in a Confederate victory. This pivotal battle set the stage for the long and arduous conflict to come.
The Rise and Fall of Stonewall
As the war raged on, one Confederate general, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, rose to prominence. Fonda portrays Jackson's remarkable strategic mind and unwavering determination through the Shenandoah Valley Campaign and the pivotal battles of Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. Jackson's audacity and brilliant leadership became both a source of inspiration and dread for both sides.
The Road to Gettysburg
In July 1863, the Union and Confederate armies met in the small Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg. Over three days of intense fighting, Fonda vividly describes the strategies, blunders, and valor that culminated in a decisive Union victory. Gettysburg proved to be the turning point of the war, shattering Confederate hopes of victory and paving the way for the Union's eventual triumph.
The Fall of Richmond
As the Union forces closed in on the Confederate capital, Fonda traces the retreat of Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia.
