Songs of the Civil War (1991)
The American Civil War divided the nation and produced profound and lasting changes in the lives of its people.

Folk singers including Judy Collins, Waylon Jennings, Ritchie Havens, and Kathy Mattea interpret music of the period, from the Spoon River Anthology to Underground Railroad coded message songs. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
