Publisher Description:
The Battle of Chickamauga was the greatest battle ever fought on Georgia soil. It was one of the greatest battles of the Civil War. It could have been a tremendous victory for the Confederacy, if not for the actions of a Union Corps Commander named George Thomas. It might have been a victory for the North, if the northern commander hadn't made a critical error in judgment on the second day of the battle, which led to a devastating attack on the Union center, and led to the Union commander running away from the field of battle. Chickamauga doesn't get the same amount of notice in modern times as the battles fought between Grant and Lee, but it was the most devastating two day battle ever fought on American soil. This book provides a brief overview of the battle, and makes copious use of both contemporary and modern photos and maps of the battlefield and participants, including 18 color illustrations and 9 black and white.
