Following his successful Tullahoma Campaign, Maj. Gen. William
Rosecrans and the Army of the Cumberland renewed their offensive
against Gen. Braxton Bragg and the Confederate Army of Tennessee,
forcing Bragg out of Chattanooga and sending his troops fleeing
into north Georgia. Determined to reoccupy Chattanooga, Bragg
forced a battle lasting from September 18 to 20, 1863, near
Chickamauga Creek that would come to be known as the Battle of
Chickamauga. Decisions at Chickamauga introduces readers to
critical decisions made by Confederate and Union commanders during
that fateful battle. Rather than offering a history of the Battle
of Chickamauga, Powell focuses on critical decisions as they
developed. This account is designed to present the reader with a
coherent and manageable interpretive blueprint of the battle's key
moments. Exploring and studying these critical decisions allows the
reader to progress from an understanding of what happened to why
events happened as they did. Complete with maps and a guided tour,
Decisions at Chickamauga will be an indispensable primer, and
readers looking for a digestible introduction to the Battle of
Chickamauga can tour this sacred ground-or read about it at their
leisure-and gain key insights into why events unfolded as they did
as well as a deeper understanding of the Civil War itself.
Decisions at Chickamauga is the third in a series of books that
will explore the critical decisions of major campaigns and battles
of the Civil War. DAVE POWELL is the author of five books on the
Battle of Chickamauga, including the three-volume The Chickamauga
Campaign. His articles have appeared in North & South Magazine,
Gettysburg Magazine, and Civil War History, among others.
