Broadband Grant

We collected a lot of materials while making the film -- stories, pictures, facts, interviews, maps, dramatic re-creation footage, and more. With broadband, we can bring more of these resources to you!

Learn about Grant's life, the Civil War, and the making of the film Ulysses S. Grant in these very special features, designed for kids of all ages.



In His Shoes

Take a journey back to the frontier and discover what Grant's life was like growing up. Was it anything like yours?

You're the General

A war is raging. Soldiers -- some of them teenagers -- are getting killed. General Grant needs to advance his troops. But how will he do it? What would you do?

Behind the Scenes

How do producers film a big story like Grant's life? Take apart an elegant White House dinner party scene to make your own production decisions, in visual, audio, and editorial labs.
