Daz is joined by the hosts of The Civil War Breakfast Club Darin Weeks and Mary Fincher to discuss the Battle of Chickamauga.
The Battle of Chickamauga (September 19–20, 1863) was a major Civil War clash fought in north-western Georgia between Union forces under Major General William Rosecrans and Confederate forces under General Braxton Bragg. It marked the end of the Union’s successful Chickamauga Campaign and became the bloodiest battle of the Western Theater, with about 34,000 total casualties. After two days of fierce fighting, Confederate troops broke through the Union line, forcing Rosecrans’ army to retreat to Chattanooga.
