The men who built America. Bloody battles

Description

The Men Who Built America profiles the men whose outsize drive, ambition, and business savvy constructed a bold vision for a modern America; this enhanced version of the series highlights additional historical context through extended interviews, factoids, and deep-dive stories. As it recovers from the Civil War, America undertakes the largest building phase of the country's history. While much of the growth is driven by railroads and oil, it's built using steel.
