DOWNLOAD EBOOKIncludes 39 maps and plans The Campaign and Battle of Chickamauga, Aug.-Sep. 1863, is an excellent vehicle for a Staff Ride. Because of the size of the forces involved and the difficulty of the terrain encountered, it represents an opportunity to raise many challenging teaching points relevant to today’s officer. Second, the nation has wisely preserved most of the primary battle area in the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park and has marked most unit positions for detailed study by visitors. These markers are linked by an extensive trail network that permits access to all significant areas of the field. Thus, the park is an excellent physical laboratory for the study of conflict at the tactical and human level. The Staff Ride Handbook for the Battle of Chickamauga, 18-20 Sep. 1863, provides a systematic approach to the analysis of this great Civil War battle. Part I describes the organization of the Federal and Confederate Armies, detailing their weapons, tactics, and logistical, engineer, communications, and medical support. In part II, the Chickamauga campaign is discussed, placing the battle in historical perspective and illustrating how the battle fits into the overall context of the Chickamauga campaign. Part III furnishes a suggested route to follow in order to get a firsthand, concrete view of how the battle developed. By following this route, various phases of the battle can be discussed and significant points made concerning the evolving battle. Also in part III are various vignettes by participants in the battle that describe the fight and offer insights into the emotional disposition of the combatants. Part IV furnishes current information on the Chickamauga site, sources of assistance, and logistical data for conducting a Staff Ride. In addition, appendixes give order of battle information for the two armies, meteorological data, and a list of Medal of Honor recipients in the battle. A bibliography is also provided.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNot far from Chattanooga in northern Georgia, the Confederacy won one of its most decisive battles at Chickamauga. This guide uses firsthand accounts to illustrate how this skirmish, only two days long, turned into the second-bloodiest battle of the Civil War with over 34,000 Union and Confederate soldiers killed, wounded, or captured. The U.S. Army War College Guides to Civil War Battles series was developed for “staff rides” on key battlefields by military professionals. Eyewitness accounts by battle participants make these guides invaluable resources for visitors to the national military parks and armchair strategists alike who want a greater understanding of five of the most devastating yet influential years in our nation’s history. This is an on-the-ground guide with explicit directions to points of interest and maps—illustrating the action and showing the details of troop position, roads, rivers, elevations, and tree lines as they were more than 150 years ago—that help bring the battle to life. In the field, these guides can be used to re-create each battle’s setting and proportions, giving the reader a sense of the tension and fear each soldier must have felt as he faced his enemy.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Glimpses of Chickamauga: A Complete Guide to All Points of Interest on This Historic Battle-Field, a Brief, Yet Comprehensive Narrative of the Chickamauga Campaign and the Battles Around Chattanooga, With Maps and Illustrations From Original Drawings and Photograhps It is only the lack of analysis and a careful study of the battles around Chattanooga during the months of September and November, 1863, that has prevented the people from justly appreciating those terrific struggles where one-third of all the men engaged were killed or wounded. Now gran ite monuments mark those grounds where heroes fell, and two hundred iron tablets placed at various points on the field tell of the difierent commands and movements of troops. This historical and very interesting matter has been gleaned from the war records of Union and Confederate depart ments by General H. V. Boynton, a noted and gal lant Union 0cer, who distinguished himself at the battle of Chickamauga. These gleanings were arranged and submitted to a large number of rep resentative ex-soldiers and o cers of both armies and all points of difierence concerning the battles agreed upon. The reading matter to be placed upon each tablet erected was then sent to the Sec retary of War, approved by him, and returned to General Boynton for execution. The author has in his possession a copy of all those proof sheets, which form the basis of this narrative.
