The battlefield maps showing troop dispositions superimposed over today's terrain/roads make it easy to understand where the fighting occured.

I have read numerous books and histories on the Campaign for Atlanta. Of all those books and accounts this is the single best work ever written. A must have for anyone who wishes to understand the Atlanta Campaign. Beautiful maps.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE guide to Atlanta during the Civil War, August 2, 2007

By 

G-Man "G-Man" (the ATL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Campaign for Atlanta (Hardcover)

This book is from a small publisher and is the definitive guide to Atlanta during the end of the Civil War. With many maps, both current and old, it is easy to understand. Athough simple in its design and layout, it is very complete in its detail. Included in the back of the book are dozens of names of officers and soldiers involved in the campaign, which may be of help to geneology researchers. It shows the troop movements not just inside Atlanta but also the surrounding areas like Kennesaw.
