In the summer of 1864, Georgia was the scene of one of the most important campaigns of the Civil War. William Tecumseh Shermans push southward toward Atlanta threatened the heart of the Confederacy, and Joseph E. Johnston and the Army of Tennessee were the Confederacys best hope to defend it. In June, Johnston managed to grind Shermans advance to a halt northwest of Atlanta at Kennesaw Mountain. After weeks of maneuvering, on June 27, Sherman launched a bold attack on Johnstons lines. The Confederate victory was one of the bloodiest days of the entire campaign. And while Shermans assaults had a frightful cost, Union forces learned important lessons at Kennesaw Mountain that enabled the fall of Atlanta several months later.
