The subject still evokes heated discussion even today.

If going by each mans motives, it is not so much political. They were both soldiers and gentlemen, with great respect for each other.

I would like to see the Unions early losses potrayed as well.
Considering the Army of the Potamac went through a few commanders before it found Grant, his victory at Vicksburg, as a minor general cemented a reputation for him. McClellan was an absolute disaster.

But I would like to see both sides qualms represented, and left to the viewer to decide morally.

It was a sad dark time in our history, even 150 years later, it still starts arguments over who was right. It should be done right, with no skew.

Well, I didn't think it would ever get done, released or what and sometimes still wonder, but all the talk is it's a done deal. I still can't get a good fix on the release date.

Hopefully it will be historically correct, has some great historians and producers. I think they were addressing for once the many overweight reenactors Tis strange seeing all the well fed fat CSA soldiers marching into battle, when they were starved and bone thin.

We'll see what the future holds.
