wow- This is one of the best ways to connect history with the present day I've seen. Anyways, I think this is one of McClellan could have won the entire Civil war easily after this battle if he chased after Lee. but after seeing this, it's obvious why he didn't.
This is a really interesting video. Its really cool to be able to connect the war history, to the land that is still there today. Its intereting that the same trees are there from so long ago. Also its cool that the house in the first picture is still there.
well the vegitation grew out alot more in the present at least, maybe all the plants absorbed some of the nutrients from some of the dead people. but yea its sad. i really like the music, the violin sound nice

That's gruesome, all the dead bodies...but the music is so calm. Kind of sad i guess. Interesting clip.
