Summary:
When the Civil War began, the opportunity to document the horrifying events as they unfolded and to present them to a country hungry for news from the battlefield was offered to thousands of photographers, yet few seized the moment. This is the story of two men in particular - Matthew Brady and Alexander Gardener - whose vision and determination captured the triumph, the tragedy and the drama of this country's most trying hour.
