Griffith's Birth of a Nation (1915) to Free State of Jones (2016), the war has provided the setting, ideologies, and character archetypes for cinematic narratives of morality, race, gender, and nation, as well as serving as historical education for a century of Americans. The American Civil War on Film and TV: Blue and Gray in Black and White and Color bring together nineteen essays by a diverse array of scholars across the disciplines to explore these issues.
