About the Book

In late July of 1864, William Tecumseh Sherman sent two large cavalry forces under Edward McCook and George Stoneman south of Atlanta to destroy the Macon & Western Railroad. On his way, McCook destroyed railroad infrastructure in Palmetto, Fayetteville and Lovejoy's Station. McCook was supposed to meet up with Stoneman at Lovejoy's, but Stoneman never showed. McCook was forced to retreat through Newnan, chased by cavalry under the command of Joseph Wheeler. Wheeler soundly defeated McCook at the Battle of Brown's Mill on July 30, 1864. The book contains 49 photos, maps and period newspaper articles.
