Civil War Combat is a television series hosted by the History Channel from 1999 to 2003.[1] It described battles of the American Civil War in a graphic, realistic level. Veteran voice actor Tony Jay served as narrator. Historical reenactment was used to visualize the events.

One of the objectives of the series was to associate people with lesser known regiments and commands. Another one was to provide little known facts of the fields of conflict and to also give an accurate portrayal of the bloodiness of the fighting of the day.
