Tennessee saw more battles than any state except Virginia - 38 major conflicts and more than 3,000 other "military actions," Those actions include such well-known East Tennessee incidents as the siege of Knoxville and the Chattanooga campaign, along with such unsung tales as the bridge burnings of November 1861 and other clashes between Confederates defending their homes and the Unionist invaders.
While a number of general histories of the war have been written of the Siege of Knoxville, this book takes a different approach, telling the story of the battle in the words of the men who were actually there. This book gives accounts of the events which occurred primarily from October, 1863 January 1864 in East Tennessee including Campbell's Station, Bean's Station, Mossy Creek, Dandridge and Fair Garden.
