Inecom Entertainment Company Honors Our Nation's 16th President with Lincoln and Lee at Antietam DVD

Pittsburgh, PA - February 14, 2007 - Almost a century and a half after Abraham Lincoln's death, there is no shortage of interest in his life or contributions to our nation. In fact, the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum recently celebrated the arrival of its one-millionth visitor and the National Constitution Center is currently displaying a rare printing of Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation.

In February, Inecom Entertainment Company also honors our nation's 16th president with its DVD, Lincoln and Lee at Antietam - The Cost of Freedom, which documents the single bloodiest day in American history and vividly brings to life the story of America's fight for freedom in a battle that changed the course of the Civil War. Narrated by Ronald F. Maxwell, director of Gettysburg and Gods and Generals, the feature documentary is available at video stores, Internet retailers, educational and institutional distributors and large retail chains worldwide.

During the Civil War, President Lincoln needed a victory in order to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, which remains today one of the most socially important documents in American history, shaping black history, as well as our nation as a whole. When Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s strategy fell into the hands of the Union Army, the result was the Battle of Antietam in Sharpsburg, Maryland. In the fight for freedom, nearly twice as many Americans died on that single day than had fallen in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, the Mexican War and the Spanish-American War combined. In striking comparison, American losses on the bloodiest day of World War II, D-Day, were a quarter of those at Antietam.

Lincoln and Lee at Antietam - The Cost of Freedom, which will appear on public television stations nationwide over President's Day weekend, tells the tale of the 14-hour epic Battle at Antietam and features commentaries from renowned historians such as:

• James M. McPherson, Princeton University, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom and Crossroads of Freedom: Antietam;
• Allen C. Guelzo, Gettysburg College, America’s only repeat winner of the Lincoln Prize; Nominated byPresident George W. Bush to the National Council on the Humanities;
• Dennis E. Frye, National Park Service Historian at Harpers Ferry, author of Antietam Revealed and associate producer of Gods and Generals; and
• Paul V. Chiles, National Park Service Historian at Antietam National Park.

Written, directed and produced by multiple-award winner Robert Child (Gettysburg: Three Days of Destiny,Gettysburg: The Boys in Blue and Gray and the upcoming Silent Wings - The American Glider Pilots of WWII), Lincoln and Lee at Antietam - The Cost of Freedom vividlybrings to life the story of America's fight for freedom.
