New Birth of Freedom: Gettysburg, Lincoln, and the End of the Civil War | The American Story | Ep 17
America’s Civil War reaches its bloodiest turning point as Abraham Lincoln carries private grief into a national struggle for survival. From the fields of Gettysburg and the siege of Vicksburg to the slaughter at Cold Harbor, Sherman’s march, and the desperate race to pass the Thirteenth Amendment, this episode follows Lincoln, Grant, Lee, and a nation pushed to the brink. Hear how the Gettysburg Address redefined the war, how Union victory reshaped the 1864 election, and how Richmond’s fall led to Lee’s surrender at Appomattox. It is a sweeping story of sacrifice, freedom, faith, and the fragile hope of reunion.
