These stories reveal the haunting effects of Shiloh, which resulted in almost 24,000 maimed, missing or dead...in just two days.

Absolutely tremendous film. One of the two best ever made on Shiloh. Well done. Just ordered the DVD for my daughter. Thank you for making it available on UA-cam.
What's the other one?
@@ImperialGit What other films are there on Shiloh?
I’m gonna assume it’s gonna be Shiloh: Fiery Trial
I watched it again....This time I was really moved....Personal individual accounts become extremely heart rendering, and then their future endeavors....All hallowed ground...
Stunning Film - beyond BRILLIANT ---Bravo for this beautifully photogrsphed, acted and written production !
I agree with all the comments here. This was brilliantly done. It brings home the humanity of the struggle while clearly showing its strategic significance as the point where it became clear that the Civil War was an existential conflict not a day at the beach. This work inspired me to subscribe to Wide Awake Films.
Great dramatization. Shiloh was so underrated as a civil war battle.
What a great watch. I wish netflix or some other network would make a series of the civil war in all of its bloody details.
If they did the producers should utilise Wide Awake Films great talent.
@@geoffhunter7704 Thank you for your kind words!
I never understood how they could relax and sleep during the nights between battles. Their bodies must have been flooded with adrenaline. Head to head battles went on for hours and hours. Sometimes they would spent all day shotting in formation, knowing that they could die at any moment. The deafening explosion of cannon fire in your ears at all hours. How do you unwind after a day like that? How do you relax? I guess you dont, not really. Not until the war is over. I wish I could go back to that era, just wander around, talk to the men, see what it was like.
Civil war combat was such a horror show, it has amazed me how a soldier who had survived a battle could ever find it within himself to go into another. A bravery very foreign to me, astonishing really.
The civil war was a very sad time in our country. You would think that both sides would have had above average negotiators to make a compromise. Families against one another, friends, along with other walks of life. Injured soldiers screaming in pain and the fear of diseases and infections if they dismember any parts of the body. The soldiers didn’t need to get injured to get diseases. There was so much loss of life and injuries that took a toll on the soldier’s loved ones.
All I can say is.....BRAVO!! An amazing 1st person documentary.!!
Outstanding! A truly tasteful look at this battle, thanks for sharing!
This is really good. I’m about 10 minutes in and am really enjoying this!
I am surprised both that I have never seen this video in the recommended videos to watch before today, as well as the view count being much lower than the quality deserves.
So glad to hear that you enjoyed it! We have a brand new series on CuriosityStream right now, featuring six episodes of amazing Civil War escape stories. Check it out: curiositystream.com/video/4275
Superb production,the personal testimonies make this film extra special,truely momentuous.
Thia Ià absolutely excellent. I relished every minute of this video.
Outstanding!!!
I plan to visit Shiloh this year on the anniversary of the Battle. Hopefully it will be a warm sunny April day. Maybe I will see some on you there 👍🏻
Very sorry it was so cool and damp like it was. It was a hell of a nice reenactment just off the park and a hell of nice living history on the park.
God willing we will have the same here in a few more years. We appreciate ALL of y'all folks who are good enough to come to the Parks in TN. Be safe, God bless you and yours.
a very fine doc,,,,should have some kind of award
You are most welcome actually you deserve more than 2.66 subscribers but when your excellent talent becomes much better known you will gain many more in fact some females i recommended your Shiloh film to were in tears at the loss of life and personal tragedies so eloquently portrayed so we are looking avidly to your next production Antietam perhaps as at Shiloh the Hunter family lost there too.
Nice workings G-D
Thank you , or truth , ALL
Stupendously well done documentary. Good choice of period "narrators" - surprised to see the famous (or perhaps more properly infamous) Henry Morton Stanley there - didn't know till now that he fought at Shiloh (and I daresay a good number of Congolese would have been happier had he never left the place alive) as well as Ambrose Bierce. Also General Lew Wallace, who wrote the epic Ben Hur, was one of the Union generals there.
It seems that like Chancellorsville, the greatest loss was in the Confederate general killed there, more than winning or losing the battle.
Wow very good film .. I keep waiting for a movie to be made on shiloh
See Fiery Trails, the NPS Film Made in 2011, my Reenactor Unit, the 4th KY and our Battalion from Alabama and others made this Documentary Film.
Been to this battlefield many times it was just as bad as Gettysburg wished the would make a big movie on it
Dated a girl from McNairy County Tennessee once upon a time. Been to the Shiloh NMP many times.
The first thing lost in war is the truth!
Excellent video guys. Thank you!
Excellent upload! I just subscribed to your channel. 👍🏻
It Breaks My Heart thinking about ALL the Americans that died, Who knows what this Country would have been like, if the war hadn't taken SO MANY of OUR VERY BEST. !!!! R.I.P. EVERYONE !! Long Live FREEDOM and AMERICA !!!
A terrible struggle, with terrible cost, but an unfinished disaster in a heavily armed and antagonistic land.
Meaning what?
OH it was finished…Qanon isnt real
great film!
This is very well done...i would like to subscribe and view more ..
very well done!
Well done!
I’ve lived in Chattanooga, TN for the better part of 15 years. Maybe 20 minutes from the Chickamauga Battlefield and Missionary Ridge and perhaps about 25-30 from Lookout Mountain. I sometimes take for granted that I live just mere minutes from two of the largest battles of the western theater.
I’ve visited Fort’s Henry/Donelson near Dover, Stones River Battlefield in Murfreesboro and Franklin in Williamson County.
But I still have not been to Shiloh yet. I may do that here soon and see if they have a reenactment this April.
Grant was so skilful against the surprise of Johnston, he and his soldiers held Pittsburg landing for the next day counterattack with Buell's army.
Grant didn’t hold Pittsburg landing due to skill. He held it because it got dark and the confederate attack ended for the day. If the Confederates had a few more hours of light they may have destroyed Grant there. If Grant hadn’t received Reinforcements that night he would have been in big trouble the next morning
Buells men won the battle
@@JohnnyRebKy Good sportman, good goalkeeper (in soccer or in team handball) and good general have lucky! Somebody on UA-cam ranks the northern generals and according to him the best northern general was Thomas. He declars Grant and Sherman did reconnaissance mistake before Shiloh. If you read my comments I want to circle around this mistake. I think that time the cavalry's decisive role of battle decraesed, but for the reconnaissance was huge. Lee without Stuart was half blind at Gettysburg and Buford's role was big at the Federals.
@@avenaoat yep many battles were won by luck 🍀. Once a battle began much of the control was lost.
@@JohnnyRebKy Sherman mentioned or wrote somewhere, that he did not order to build strong defence position at Shiloh, because he was accused to be mad in Kentucky, when he lost the trust of Stanton for a short time. I think this was little criticizm for himself and Grant. The begining the Conflict the Southern Generals were better, this could be seen well. I do not know Lyon who attackted with his dwarf army the Confederats similar tactics as Johnston started the battle against Grant at Shiloh would not have died at Wison's Creek (BTW Fremont suggested retreat to Rola the end of the railroad from StLouis) he could have been a good general? However the Wilson's Creek battle shows a too reckless army leader. When I read about Mc Clallen did not want army corps organization and he wanted 15 divisions to manage from his headquarter (because he was afraid of a growing competitor) I was horrified, after this except for Gettysburg I read about the West and the Transmississipi Theaters or about the naval events as New Orleans instead of the Eatern Theater. That two theaters happened something movement untill 1865.
@@JohnnyRebKy It was Grant's military skills, that he held Pittsburg Landing. He also got lucky it was getting night fall came, you don't really know if that was going to happen. Grant Army would have held the line until Buell show up, Buell was dragging his feet because he was being a child, he wanted command. He felt he was better suited than Grant but Halleck dismissed him. I think that's why Buell dragged his feet, it's been a while since I read on Shiloh.
Good scriptures for today!
G-D.
It was right own to prove me fucking right again!
Very well done.
A comment needs to be made about the large casualties at Shiloh. The most dangerous weapons at Shiloh were the steam riverboat, railroad steam train and the telegraph. It was the ability of the Union generals and the Confederates generals to concentrate men with the railway train or the steam riverboat that made the Civil War so deadly. The ocean going ship played a part too in this concentration of manpower. The armies could be kept in the field almost indefinitely with the steam riverboat or railway or ocean going steamship. As long as fresh supplies of ammunition, food, fodder for draft animals, clothes, shoes, tents, guns and replacements could be moved to sustain the armies in the field, the killing and maiming never stopped. Napoleonic battles themselves were much like Civil War battles. But the difference was Napoleonic armies could only be sustained in a concentrated state for a specific interval of time before fodder for the draft animals ran out. The draft animals ate all the grass/fodder nearby a battlefield so could only stay for a specific period of time before starving to death. Draft animals hauled everything. So fodder was a priority supply category by rail or steam riverboat equal to ammunition and water. The combat casualties per battle were the same as Napoleonic battles but the endless skirmishing, smaller battles and picket firefights between patrols never ended during the Civil War. The Industrial age made the killing and maiming process more mechanical in nature. As long as supply arteries were kept open, an army in the Civil War could stay out in the field year around. It takes a while for this to soak in and make sense but it explains everything about why the Civil War was so bloody and long.
The FIREARMS used at Shiloh on both sides were mostly old percussion cap smoothbore muskets firing buck and ball rounds or buckshot. Buck and ball rounds were one .69 caliber ball round with three .30 caliber buckshot rounds. The Confederates are said to have used a considerable number of smoothbore muskets from the Revolutionary and War of 1812. Most of these old smoothbore muskets had been converted over to the percussion cap. The percussion cap simplified the complex flintlock system that required constant maintenance to keep functioning. The state armories in the start of the Civil War had but few rifled muskets. So most regiments in the Norht and the South marched to war with old percussion cap smoothbore muskets just like their fathers and grandfathers had done a generation or more before in the frontier Indian battles, War of 1812 and Mexican War. Old smoothbore muskets firing buck and ball rounds or buckshot rounds proved plenty deadly at Shiloh where the average distance between the lines were often 50 meters or less in the thick brush, undalations and vegetation of the battlefield. Confederate regiments had plenty of shotguns issued to troops too. Most combat was close quarters at Shiloh so having a modern rifled musket and MInie ball didn't mattter in the least. Casualties at Shiloh with very old and primitive smoothbore weapons were about 25,000 total. The old adage that when war comes everyone just wants something that shoots regardless of how old it might be rings true at Shiloh and many other Civil War battles.
Stenley was galvanised Yankee, interesting. I knew he was prisoner of War, but this is new information.
Drummer boys were as young as NINE . They led the soldiers into battle and were killed and wounded Some boys killed men as well
Very, very 😢😭 sad, so many youths lost to the war, they ever got grow up and be men, and live life and marry and have children.
Their innocents were taken away from them, mental and physical scared from the war.
16 9 And David the king
came and sat before the LORD,
and said, Who am I, O LORD
God,
and what is mine house,
that thou hast brought me hith-
erto?
el 17 And yet this was a small
st thing in thine eyes, O God; for
thou hast also spoken of thy
servant's house for a great
while to come, and hast re-
garded me according to the estate
Of a man of high degree,
O LORD GOD.
What can David speak more to thee for the honor of thy servant? For thou knowers thy servant.
I LORD, for thy servant’s sKe, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this
Greatness, in making
damned fine work

14 That thou keep this com-
mandment without spot, unre-
bukeable,

of our Lord Jesus Christ: Od

Amazing so hard it is to keep a balance of music and speak! Almost impossible to understand!
I read somewhere Halleck had a little aversy against Grant (At the Pacific Grant was lonely without his wife and the wiskey was his friend and this escorted him untill 1863 Vicksburg. He was lucky for Fremont who was without prejudice and he promoted Grant to local army leader in South Illinois in Cairo ) and it may be this could be the root case Grant had a little fewer soldier on the first day, he had fewer cavalry to do goodreconnaissance the CA. The other root case could be logistic Grant's Army came by river boat and he got less boat, because the brown water fleet had to dived between Grant and Pop ( Battle of Island No. 10 was that time ), so Grant had fewer cavalry? Object couse as it might be the logistic boat lack or subjective couse might be as Halleck's aversy the root couse for the fewer cavalry at Shiloh? All right Grant was the winner, but a good cavalry reconnaissance would have prevented the surprise of Johnston and the second day with Buel's army a Nashville of Thomas 1864 december would have been with Union flag in Vixksburg in 1862!
I read little about the Eastern Theater (Gettysburg is the main exception), because the many awful rhing. According to me one of the top thing, Mc Clellan did not want to organize Armycorps he wanted to fight 15 (fifteen!) divisions only, McClallen did not want a good Corp leader who could have changed him!
why the loud music?

Sherman not believing his own officers that the confederates were there in force is inexcusable..imo

LOL your ignorance is hilarious to behold. Don’t stop keep going! You spend your days angry & hating what anyone else chooses to do with their freedom…You dont even know what it is to be american… America is about not caring what anyone else does with their freedom not hating everyone not like you. You’d do MUCH better in Putins russia with the christian taliban
Damn Yankees!
