fwiw, the History Channel's special (on the WBTS) was "on cable" again recently.

of civilian casualties the most reliable ESTIMATED number available is about 4-500K, who died as a result of combat actions,starvation and/or exposure, war-related illnesses & other similar causes.

the POINT is that lincoln, the TYRANT, could have saved ALL those lives & those of the brave servicemen on BOTH sides, had he chosen PEACE, rather than his needLESS war.

i will not argue about whether the TV special's figure is correct or not, as (imVho) ANY & ALL of those civilian deaths were UNnecessary.
