Summary

"This first-time-ever original-narrative documentary is a unique and entertaining retelling of the turbulent-yet-fascinating events leading up to and through the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson. You'll learn firsthand from the characters themselves- such as Thaddeus Stevens, Charles Sumner, and others who were involved- as you get an in-depth and evenhanded picture of an often-overlooked period in American history. And these characters are probably unlike anyone you have encountered. With backstabbings, acts of violence, and twists and turns, the factual history of this case unfolds like a fictional story."--Container
