''Horses of Gettysburg'' Debuts Nationwide on DVD May 2, 2006
PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 10, 2006--Inecom Entertainment
Company is pleased to announce the May 2, 2006 release of "Horses of
Gettysburg." Narrated by Ronald F. Maxwell (director of the epic Civil
War films "Gettysburg" and "Gods and Generals") and directed by Mark
Bussler, the feature-length documentary captures the relationship
between soldiers and their horses.
Fourth in The Civil War Minutes(R) series, "Horses of Gettysburg"
celebrates the honor and courage of the 72,000 horses and mules that
fought in the epic battle.
The special edition 2-DVD box set contains a 116-minute Director's Cut
from the High-Definition master tapes with more than 3 hours of
additional DVD features that will entertain animal enthusiasts and
those passionate about horses and American History.
Michael Bussler, CEO of Inecom Entertainment Company believes that,
"Animal enthusiasts will be fascinated by the film and the additional
features, such as Ronald F. Maxwell's 22-minute interview on working
with horses in movies such as 'Gettysburg' and 'Gods and Generals.'"
According to director Mark Bussler, "The idea for the film started
with questions like how many horses were involved in the Battle of
Gettysburg, who fed them, how were they trained and what happened to
them during the battle?" Not only does "Horses of Gettysburg" answer
those questions but it also explores little known details like the
number of Union and Confederate horses killed during the three-day
battle, how the Army mule differed from the Army horse, how Union and
Confederate horses were procured and how unscrupulous horse dealers
tried to scam the Army.
