American Civil War, Capture of Atlanta, 1864

Lithograph entitled and captioned: "The capture of Atlanta, Georgia, September 2nd, 1864 by the Union Army, under Major General William T. Sherman. On the 30th August, the Union Army, by the masterly strategy of General Sherman, made a rapid flank movement, cutting the Rail Road south of the City, attacking the Rebels at Jonesboro, and capturing their guns and defenses there. General John Bell Hood, the Rebel Commander, finding himself completely outgeneraled, set fire to his stores, blew up his magazines and 'skedaddled'. General Sherman with the 20th Corps occupied the place and thus in the thrilling words of Sherman 'Atlanta is our and fairly won'." The Atlanta Campaign was a series of battles fought in the Western Theater of the American Civil War throughout northwest Georgia and the area around Atlanta during the summer of 1864.
