The Canadian story of the American Civil War... Told through the eyes of the Canadians who helped start the war, to those who fought it, to the leaders influenced by it, we unravel one of the most pivotal events in the continent's history. From the pubs of Saint John to the docks of Halifax, from Southern Ontario battlefields to the battlements of Quebec City, find out which Canadians were on the right and wrong sides of history. Tens of thousands of Canadians joined the Union Army, and Emma Edmonds from Nova Scotia was one of the women who enlisted, disguised as a male soldier.  This is the story of two nations facing each other down over a tenuous border for a century, and the war that changed everything.
