The Fall of 1864
John Bell Hood, the Confederate Army of Tennessee's commander, had been a thorn in the side of the Union forces in North Georgia. His relentless harassment tactics forced Union commander William T. Sherman to withdraw from his position and embark on his infamous 'March to the Sea.'
Hood's Strategy
Instead of engaging the larger Federal force head-on, Hood decided to strike northward into Tennessee. His plan was to cripple the Federal supply infrastructure and defeat the remaining Union forces under George Thomas. He hoped this would force Sherman to come to the rescue.
The Battle of Franklin
On November 30, 1864, the Confederates found themselves in a small town called Franklin. They saw an opportunity to attack a part of Thomas' army outside their Nashville stronghold. However, what initially seemed promising turned into a devastating defeat for the Confederate army. Hood's determination to root out the Federals cost the Army of Tennessee dearly. Thousands of Confederate soldiers lost their lives in wave after wave of attacks against the well-fortified Federal positions.
A Costly Victory
The Confederates eventually emerged victorious, but the Battle of Franklin came at an unimaginable cost. The bloodbath that unfolded on that fateful day forever etched the name "Franklin" into history as a symbol of disaster. White's meticulous research and expertise in the Army of Tennessee allow readers to delve into the personal stories and experiences of those involved in this brutal battle.
Let Us Die Like Men
