The Battle of Allatoona Pass has received scant attention in most
histories of the Civil War. This is probably because it occurred
after Sherman had taken Atlanta, but before Sherman's March to the
Sea. Thus, it often escapes being noted in histories of either
campaign. The battle was significant, though. Some of the fiercest
fighting of the whole War occurred there, with combined casualty
figures over 30% (North: 706; South: 873). The battle broke the
back of John Bell Hood's plan to significantly disrupt Sherman's
supply line from Atlanta to the north, and allowed Sherman to plan
his march to Savannah with his Western & Atlantic supply line
intact. This book contains 31 photos and drawings, with 13 of them
in color.
