From Bleeding Kansas to Old Virginny: Songs and Stories of the Civil War

Description

For four years, the Civil War raged on such storied battlefields as Gettysburg and Antietam in the East to lesser-known places like La Glorieta Pass in New Mexico. With guitar and harmonica accompaniment, Holtz performs songs that express the war’s wide variety of sentiments, issues and stories. The program includes some of the popular patriotic and sentimental parlor songs, as well as some lesser-known songs from the war on the Western Border.
