| Interpretation | His [Sherman’s] first movement of troops to effect this was the ordering of the Army of the Tennessee to the extreme right of the line, their late positions being held by a line of cavalry vedettes. The movement to the right seemed to meet a similar movement on the part of the enemy, who, on the 28th instance of July, attacked the Fifteenth Corps, then the extreme right of our line. The troops were just going into position when the rebels made their advance. Barnard, George N. Photographic Views of Sherman's Campaign. (New York: Dover Publications, 1977), p. xvi. |
