[narrator]
on the twelfth of april, 1861, confederate guns opened fire on fort sumter in charleston harbor, thus beginning the bloodiest conflict in american history — 620,000 dead — more than all other american wars combined. the civil war remains this nation’s single most defining experience, ultimately giving new meaning to the word freedom. walt whitman, a young newspaperman destined to become america’s greatest poet wrote: “future years will never know the seething h-ll and the black infernal background of this war — and it is best they should not — the real war will never get in the books.”
