Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. The Battle of Chickamauga , fought between the Army of Tennessee and the Army of the Cumberland, was one of the bloodiest and most significant battles of the Civil War. Less famous than Gettysburg, Shilohor Vicksburg, it is no less significant. Chickamauga represented the last opportunity for the Confederacy to win the war. During the course of the campaign, Confederate commander Braxton Bragg had ample opportunity to wipe out the Army of the Cumberland under William Stark Rosecrans. However, Bragg missed every opportunity and engaged the Union forces in a pitched, costly, confused battle in the woodlands of Western Georgia. The story of Chickamauga is one of inept blundering, wasteful bloodshed, and heroic gallantry that made a major impact on the outcome of the Civil War and our nation's history. Profusely illustrated. Fine oversized hardcover in a mylar covered, unclipped dust jacket. The pictures on the listing page are of the actual book for sale, NOT stock photos.…

Patrick Abbazia was a professor of military history at the Graduate Center, City University of New York and is the author of several books and many articles and reviews. The Chickamauga campaign of the American Civil War was a series of battles fought in northwestern Georgia from August 21 to September 20, 1863, between the Union Army of the Cumberland and Confederate Army of Tennessee. The campaign started successfully for Union commander William S. Rosecrans, with the Union army occupying the vital city of Chattanooga and forcing the Confederates to retreat into northern Georgia. But a Confederate attack at the Battle of Chickamauga forced Rosecrans to retreat back into Chattanooga and allowed the Confederates to lay siege to the Union forces. At the time of Chickamauga, the Army of Tennessee was suffering from a shortage of food and of wagons to transport supplies; it also lacked pontoon bridges to cross the Tennessee River. The Confederates occupied Missionary Ridge and spread a picket line along the south bank of the river towards Alabama. Fire from Confederate sharpshooters prevented supply wagons from reaching Chattanooga. Key battles were Murfreesboro, Tullahoma, Chattanooga, Chickamauga, and Missionary Ridge. The union general-in-chief Maj. Gen. Henry W. Halleck and President Abraham Lincoln were insistent that Rosecrans move quickly to take Chattanooga. Seizing the city would open the door for the Union to advance toward Atlanta and the heartland of the South. Chattanooga was a vital rail hub with lines going north toward Nashville and Knoxville and south toward Atlanta. Chattanooga was also an important manufacturing center for the production of iron and coke, located on the navigable Tennessee River. Situated between Lookout Mountain, Missionary Ridge, Raccoon Mountain, and Stringer's Ridge, Chattanooga occupied an important, defensible position. …
