This video contains detailed information on important actions of the American Civil War. It was made during a guided tour of the actual battlefield, conducted for members of the Chesapeake Chapter, Company of Military Historians. The tour guide, Mr. John Michael Priest, is an expert on the subject matter, and author of the book "Before Antietam." His remarks assume a basic knowledge of the three battles of South Mountain. Mr. Priest discusses the evidence he has uncovered that proves Union General Reno was shot dead by a Massachusetts soldier, not by one of the enemy. For a summary of the battles, maps, etc. we recommend this webpage,
