This week features an excellent offering from The History Channel:


The History Channel: April 1865: The Month that Saved America
http://www.historychannel.com/1865/
April 1865: The Month that Saved America, examines the most pivotal 30 days in the history of the United States, a time when all signs pointed to a disastrous end for the young country. These 30 days encompass the final days of the Civil War--from the frenzied fall of Richmond to Lee's harrowing retreat, from the surrender at Appomattox to Lincoln's assassination, and the beginning attempts to reconstruct the United States.

Good Luck!
