Washington, D. C. in 1861. The Civil War is at hand and the city is preparing for disaster. America is a country divided in two.

See how this once sleepy little town became the metropolis we know today. A city shaped in marble, a symbol of American freedom and a memorial to those who fought tooth and nail to preserve it.
