Jefferson Davis: An American President (2008)
For the first time on film, this revealing DVD presents the complete story of Jefferson Davis in three informative and entertaining full-length episodes. Jefferson Davis was the Confederate States of America's first and only president. But what few people realize is that he had already spent many years before the Civil War began in patriotic service to the United States of America. As an Army officer, congressman, Secretary of War and two-term Mississippi senator, Davis was instrumental in founding the Smithsonian Institution, and was largely responsible for the design of the United States Capitol. This unprecedented documentary includes many rare photographs, unparalleled interviews with top Davis scholars and never-before-seen footage from the Confederate White House and many private homes.
