Rebel Sabres: The Battle of Brandy Station 1863 (1993)

Fought as a result of the build up to the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War, this is the story of a titanic clash between two huge cavalry forces numbering some 18,000 horsemen. Until that fateful meeting, the Confederate cavalry had been considered invincible but at Brandy Station the Yankees were to prove more than a match for their enemy. This DVD features grand-scale re-enactments from the battlefield, atmospheric recreations of camp life, expert analysis and dramatised "eye-witness" accounts.
