Short stories about individuals, their letters home and personal effects are great. At first one may easily think:"Wait a minute! Why is this yankee cavalryman and his letter home- talked about in this Confederate Minutes?" Answer: it ties in later with Confed. Gen. Chambliss, that this yank was in on Chambliss` death and the cavalryman removed the General`s smoking pipe & sword from the body. They show the sword; a letter home written by the Fed. cavalryman telling how the incident happened, etc. Small details and interesting anecdotes are not passed up. I once thought that this stuff is minutia details that only hard-case re-enactors would like, but I changed my mind apon closer examination of the content. It is excellent.
If you like learning or just being entertained with the civil war these type films are great.

The Civil War Minutes series offers small vignettes of information about civil war soldiering. This DVD deals with Confederate. Throughout the program, the host reads soldiers' letters. He also has items from private collections such as uniforms, weapons, and accessories that he describes in detail.
If you are interested in the Civil War, you will like this very narrative explanation of things they carried to how some personal information about the soldiers and not just about the battles. Which it seems more personal this way. You see the people not the war.
