The campaign from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, to Chickamauga, Georgia,
followed by the siege of Chattanooga, is one of the most dramatic
stories of the entire Civil War. Union Major General William S.
Rosecrans led a brilliant advance into Georgia, taking Chattanooga
with the loss of only six men. Near Chickamauga Creek, Confederate
General Braxton Bragg routed Rosecrans' army, then laid siege to it
from the heights around Chattanooga. Major General Ulysses S.
Grant, recently given command of virtually all Federal armies in
the Western Theater, arrived to break the siege. A climatic Union
charge routed Bragg's demoralized army. Historic Photos of
Chickamauga Chattanooga tells this story and much more, for
it includes the important struggle to preserve America's Civil War
battlefields, which began with Chickamauga. Striking
black-and-white images of aging veterans, reuniting to preserve
their history, join photos of the rugged terrain over which they
fought in 1863. This is a compelling American story told in
photographs, with text by a noted historian.
