The Nashville and Decatur Railroad was in operation five months
before the start of the Civil War and 17 months before the Federals
took control of Nashville and the railroad. Running through Central
Tennessee to Alabama, the highly contested line passed through
Confederate-held territory, where rebels and their sympathizers
continually sabotaged bridges, trestles and track. This first
full-length work on the N&D Railroad emphasizes its importance
in the Western Theater and brings to light the four key men who
kept it open for the duration of the war. Significant military
activities in the region are described, along with the contraband
camp, military complex and other features surrounding the
railroad's only tunnel.
