In the summer of 1864, Georgia was the scene of one of the most
important campaigns of the Civil War. William Tecumseh Sherman's
push southward toward Atlanta threatened the heart of the
Confederacy, and Joseph E. Johnston and the Army of Tennessee were
the Confederacy's best hope to defend it. In June, Johnston managed
to grind Sherman's advance to a halt northwest of Atlanta at
Kennesaw Mountain. After weeks of maneuvering, on June 27, Sherman
launched a bold attack on Johnston's lines. The Confederate victory
was one of the bloodiest days of the entire campaign. And while
Sherman's assaults had a frightful cost, Union forces learned
important lessons at Kennesaw Mountain that enabled the fall of
Atlanta several months later.
