About this product

Product Information

When Vicksburg fell to Union forces under General Grant in July 1863, the balance turned against the Confederacy in the trans-Appalachian theater. The Federal success along the river opened the way for advances into central and eastern Tennessee, which culminated in the bloody battle of Chickamauga and then a struggle for Chattanooga. Chickamauga is usually counted as a Confederate victory, albeit a costly one. That battle--indeed the entire campaign--is marked by muddle and blunders occasionally relieved by strokes of brilliant generalship and high courage. The campaign ended significant Confederate presence in Tennessee and left the Union poised to advance upon Atlanta and the Confederacy on the brink of defeat in the western theater.

"Concise and easily read . . .

  • Six Armies in Tennessee

    The scope of the book covers the military operations in Middle and Eastern Tennessee during the summer and fall of 1863. These include the Tullahoma and Knoxville campaigns as well as the larger Chickamauga and Chattanooga campaigns. Woodworth’s thesis is that the series of campaigns that resulted in Union forces taking control of Tennessee in the last half of 1863 greatly influenced the outcome of the war. Combined with the Union victories at Gettysburg and Vicksburg, the Confederacy was left in a desperate condition. Confederate morale was low, Confederate casualties were high, and thousands of square miles of territory, including Chattanooga, an important transportation point and key to the Union invasion of the heart of the Confederacy, were lost. “The road to Atlanta…” according to ...
