A Nation's Broken Soul

Description

Virtually every American family could count itself a casualty of our Civil War. Our Civil War caused an entire nation to be caught up in looking back for the next century and a half. Indeed, we Americans are still looking back, attempting to understand the depth and the breadth of it all.

This film attempts to shed some light on the loves lost and relationships broken by the Civil War. This selection of period songs offers us a glimpse into the hearts and minds of those separated forever. This video is a monument to the wives, sweethearts, mothers, and the children who were left behind to bear A NATION'S BROKEN SOUL . . .

This video received a recommendation from the American Libraries Association. It is a companion to "Shades of Blue and Gray" which includes original Civil War music composed and performed by Dave Mathews.

Wrong Dave Mathews!.......2006-10-07

When I entered 'Dave Mathews' in the Amazon Search Engine, this obscure however interesting title came up. Dave Mathews was on the credits and I though it would be a great gift to a friend who was a big Mathews fan. After waiting about a month for this DVD to arrive I viewed the DVD with my friend and it quickly became apparent that the Dave Mathews on the credits was definately not the more well known Dave Mathews (Dave Mathews Band. The returns policy indicates that since the DVD is out of the wrapping and there was nothing wrong with the DVD (appart from some conviently place 'DAVE MATHEWS' in bold on the front cover) then I would get a reduced refund. Combined with this the fact I live in Australia would mean the eventual refund would be 3/10 of bugger all.
