This video explores the letters and life of just one man from the American Civil War where hundreds of thousands lost their lives.
From the small town of Lowell, Michigan, George Miller fought with the 3rd Michigan infantry from the Battle of Blackburn's Ford to the Battle of the Seven Pines.
This collection of letters shows just how moving and important it is to use primary sources to examine history. While movies often focus on generals and politicians, history always needs to remember the common person.
