All 130 episodes from the classic animated series. During the first season, the world of Thundera is in crisis. The planet's structure has become unstable and is near collapse. With their destruction imminent, Thundera's denizens, known as the Thundercats, escape in a spaceship and plot a course for a new home. While in transit, the Thundercats are attacked by evil mutants and their craft is irreparably damaged. Jaga, the eldest Thundercat, sacrifices himself in order to pilot the ship safely to its destination: Third Earth. In the second season, when a recurring vision torments leader Lion-O, the Thundercats realise that three more Thunderians must have survived the destruction of Thundera. A daring rescue mission pits the Thundercats against the villainous Mumm-Ra, who has strengthened his forces of mutants and broadened the range of his dark territories. Ultimately Lion-O saves the new Thunderians, but the cost is high: Mumm-Ra becomes even more powerful and more determined to destroy the Thundercats.
Rumor, gossip, and innuendo are the weapons of the home front, and no one wielded them with quite the aplomb of Maria Lydig Daly. Her richly detailed comments on everything from inept Union generals to Dorothea Dix's appearance provide the liveliest memoir to emerge from a Northern noncombatant. Daly was the wife of a prominent New York City judge whose connections allowed her to meet many major figures involved in Northern military and diplomatic strategy. Despite catty comments about Mrs. Lincoln and less-than-flattering appraisals of Union generalship, Daly could be sympathetic toward the suffering of the soldiers. She noted the fear with which many viewed the draft, seeing it as a terrible incursion on liberty, but she understood that the times called for severe measures.
