    Essential Civil War Curriculum | Stephen Davis, Atlanta Campaign: Peachtree Creek to the City’s Surrender | May 2017 All the Fighting They Want: The Atlanta Campaign from Peachtree Creek to the City’s Surrender, July 18-September 2, 1864 By Stephen Davis et us give these southern fellows all the fighting they want and when they are tired we can tell them we are just warming to the work.” 1 “L When General John Bell Hood took command of the Confederate Army of Tennessee, Major General William Tecumseh Sherman’s Federal forces were just a few miles outside Atlanta. By the afternoon of July 18, 1864, when Hood officially took charge of the army, all seven Union infantry corps were well across the Chattahoochee; Major General George Henry Thomas’ army was nearing Peachtree Creek. Numbers also told the story; on June 30 Sherman’s forces numbered 106,070, while Hood’s army returns of July 10 showed 59,196 officers and men present for duty. (The arrival of Major General Gustavus Woodson Smith’s Georgia militia added a few thousand more muskets.) Finally, morale also favored the Northerners. “Officers & men evince the utmost confidence,” Sherman wrote his brother-in-law Hugh Ewing on July 13, and indeed they did. “Atlanta is in sight from the trees in our camp,” wrote a soldier in the 2d Massachusetts on July 17; “I wonder how long it will be before we are there.” 2 1 William T. Sherman to Ulysses S. Grant, August 7, 1864 in United States War Department, The War of the Rebellion: A Compilation of the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, 128 vols.

  • Tennessee Historical Quarterly Civil War and Reconstruction Articles 1997-2010
    Tennessee Historical Quarterly Civil War and Reconstruction Articles 1997-2010 Spring 1997 Origins of an African-American School in Haywood County (pp 44-55) By Dorothy Granberry This account of the Freedmen’s School at Brownsville (later renamed Dunbar) examines the socio-political context in which the school emerged in 1866, the involvement of African American community leaders, and the evolution of the school into a community enterprise. R.C. Scott established a Freedmen’s Bureau office in Brownsville in 1866, where 41 percent of the population was black. The first three month session of the school was April-June that year; in August it resumed with 20 boys and 27 girls under the age of 16. By May 1867, the African American community had bought its own lot for a school, where they built a two-story frame building that was used until it burned in the 1910s. (It was named the Dunbar School in the 1890s.) The article profiles the community leaders who started the school: Mortimore Bond, Charles Somerville, Thomas Claiborne, Hardin Smith, Samuel Williams, and Frank Peebles. Next explored is the form the developing school took, the bases used by the black community in choosing trustees, and the community’s goals for the school. \ Summer 1997 The Incarceration of a Regiment (pp 80-95) By C. Wallace Cross The Forty-Ninth Tennessee was organized into ten regiments at Fort Donelson in late 1861 and was captured there on February 16, 1862. The differing experiences of the officers and enlisted men at their respective prisons exemplified “rank hath its privilege,” as the field grade officers enjoyed comfortable conditions at Fort Warren in Boston, the company officers were treated well at Johnson’s Island in northern Ohio, and the enlisted men suffered at Camp Douglas in northern Illinois.
