Pete Seeger's floating tribute to a river...

The Clearwater is a traditional wooden sloop that was launched by folk singer Pete Seeger 35 years ago to draw attention to the pollution of the Hudson River. The ship still sails today, serving as a moveable classroom, laboratory and stage. Till The River Runs Clear interweaves scenes of daily life on the sloop with stories about its exciting history and a consideration of many pressing environmental concerns...and there's plenty of Pete's music to boot.
It's a truly inspiring documentary that shows you can affect change by sharing the beauty of our surroundings with those who might not otherwise experience it...9:30

THE CIVIL WAR continues with the Battle of Gettysburg - the turning point of the war. For three days, 150,000 fought to the death in the Pennsylvania countryside culminating in Pickett's legendary charge...7pm
