The Final Campaign of the Army of Tennessee (Lecture)

[@TheMallen07]

I grew up near Greensboro, NC and always heard stories about the Battle of Guildford Courthouse and its significance as a turning point during the Revolutionary War. I never knew the Confederate cause literally dissolved in Greensboro. It shows how much we selectively pick and choose moments in history to remember. Thank you Ranger Brown for your lecture.

[@DerSchleier]

Fun fact: Tens of thousands (hundreds of thousands?) Roman Catholic Irish were expelled from their Irish homeland (by a ZOG Protestant King) and they arrived in New York Harbor (by boat). Upon docking, Lincoln ordered them conscripted into the Federal Army or be deported post haste. Entire Federal Army infantry regiments were composed of enslaved Roman Catholic Irish. Why? Because the South was winning the War of Rights and U.S. Congress told Lincoln they were intent on withdrawing all funding (of Lincoln's war). Lincoln responded by enslaving the arriving Roman Catholic Irish and rendering them into infantry so as to throw them at the C.S.A. army. Much of U.S. history has been subverted/denied us.

[@chrlsrchrdsn]

i enjoyed this talk. It was filled with information and insight. I had not realized that Lane's brigade had such a dismal ending engagement. Even the last walk that the speaker brought up was insightful and filed me with some dim part of the emotion these men felt as the war truly ended for each.

The Army of Tennessee after their defeat at Nashville on the 15 and 16th of December 1864 retreated across the Tennessee River into Alabama as I recall. At that time Hood resigned his command and the army was sent on a 30 day furlough and told to reassemble after that for further action. No sure how many returned to active duty. My Great-Great Grandfather was wounded on the 16th of December at Nashville but was able to retreat with the Army. He was in the 19th South Carolina Infantry Regiment, and his military records end after the Nashville battle and it is unknown where he was at surrender. It is likely that he returned to his home in Edgefield County, South Carolina to recover from his wound. My speculation was if able he became part of the units then being formed in South Carolina for the final defense?

[@ernestspencer4879]

This campaign gets overshadowed by the fall of Petersburg and subsequent events leading up to surrender of Appomattox. Still, Bentonville is an interesting battle to study. No way that Johnson's ad hoc army could tackle Sherman's whole force. Even if Johnson had beaten Sherman, Grant would have diverted forces from Virginia to counter, and in the end Johnson would have been caught between two superior forces. Wisely, he saw situation as it was, a hopeless cause, and surrendered to Sherman (right around time when Lincoln was assasinated).

[@drummer78]

Ernest Spencer I suppose the only hope they had was to link with the AoNV by rail and dig in for defense somewhere near Lynchburg. Still, that scenario was pretty hopeless.

[@andrewevans5750]

There's an easy explanation for weekness of resistance. George Thomas. The man crushed an army larger than the Army of Northern VA with very competent leadership, 2 armies actually. Along with Sherman he drained the West of fighting resources. Shouldn't have forced Johnston to retire. Of course, the war was lost at Shiloh.

[@decimated550]

how would you say the war was lost at shiloh? that's a fascinating theory

[@jonathanbaggs4275]

The South did lose the war at shiloh. Never again would the South have parity of numbers against federal armies. When Shiloh was lost the South lost more land mass and lands able to produce and feed its armies than it lost in both Sheridan's march up the valley and Sherman's March through Georgia. After Shiloh the South's only hope was a political solution. Unreconstructed Alabamian here but the reality is the South lost the war at Shiloh.

I live close to these battles. As I have said, a many of time. The war was over after July 65. The south should have surrendered. That said, Atlanta, Columbia and Richmond burnings are on the Confederate government. If the Confederates had of surrendered at Hampton Rds, all of this probably would not have happened. Think of the lives that could have been saved. When it is over or fruitless a good leader looks to saving the lives of his men, not more useless fighting

The CSA documented its fundamental facts - such as its seceeding specifically for slavery, and its constitutional ban on states' right to sbolish slavery - thus proving the "states' rights" nonsense to be the pathetic lie it is. The CSA got just what it deserved, and those who identify with the CSA and fly its flags do so to the extent that they are obviously anti-American.

[@tomservo5347]

It's obvious Sherman had 'connections', regardless of how well a general he was. I know a lot of his soldiers were upset about Bentonville because there they were, almost nearing the end and surviving, and then this battle happens with losses because of Sherman's sloppiness with staying alert.

[@tomservo5347]

***** Seems political generals were the bane of the Union Army. When Grant got situated into the Army of the Potomac in late summer '64 he asked his cavalry chief James Wilson on why there were so many bad political generals and what could be done with them. Wilson told Grant to fill his staff member Seneca Indian Eli Parker with the worst commissary whiskey available and let him scalp them all. Many of these generals did some good-mainly in the form of raising regiments from their respective states with which they conveniently appointed themselves commanders of. Many times the soldiers refused to have someone from another state in command.

[@tomservo5347]

I'm not calling Sherman a political general-he innovated the 'total war' approach. However on a tactical level I find his record wasn't exactly stellar. For example at Lookout Mountain Grant wanted Sherman to have the glory for it's capture but Sherman's attack bogged down. I also use the attack at Shiloh that caught Sherman's division by surprise and yet again at Bentonville. I'm more of a George Thomas fan, but we won't ever really know about him because he told his wife to burn his war diary upon his death.

[@tomservo5347]

***** As my hair turns grayer I'm happy that it's doing just that instead of falling out. I don't think George Thomas was bi-polar. Everyone that knew him said he was always even tempered. I think he simply didn't want 'the glory' memoirs usually give their authors which says a great deal of his character. He was a Virginian and his family forever disowned him for his service to the Union instead of Virginia. His troops loved him because they knew he wouldn't needlessly waste their lives and if 'Old Pap' was around things were going to be alright. In the words of Bruce Catton my favorite author, "the Union gained back nearly everything in George Thomas they had lost in Robert Lee." Sorry for the long reply...it's awesome that you're related to Joe Johnston. I don't have any ancestors that high up-just one that served with Sherman in his March to the Sea and another that died in a Richmond hospital 5 days after receiving a head wound at Petersburg, and another who was a Colonel in Lee's Army of Northern Virginia.

[@tomservo5347]

I can well imagine losing your hair upon seeing cases that an increasingly immoral society produces. I truly respect the capabilities of reasoning that marks a judge's profession. (Ever read about 'Judge' Roy Bean?) I really need to do some traveling to Civil War battlefields. We have a few here in Missouri but we never had any major engagements, with the exception of Wilson's Creek. Most around here are a simple marker around a ford or crossing and are mostly sadly forgotten and neglected. I firmly believe the saying that states a people that forget their history are doomed to repeat it. Our history may not be forgotten, but when political correctness becomes infused in it one might as well throw it out the window anyway in my humble opinion. I always wondered about being paroled in the Civil War. It was one of Grant's favorite terms of surrender but I think it was really Grant's logistical sense he learned from Winfield Scott in the Mexican War. Paroling prisoners freed Grant's armies from having to feed and guard them. As God-fearing honorable men they promised to peaceably go home and never pick up arms against the Union for the duration. Talk about devotion-I couldn't imagine continuing to fight for a lost cause after Lee and Johnston surrendered. Lee could have easily told his army to disband and continue fighting but he formally surrendered to end the bloodshed and hoped his example would influence the rest of any Confederates who pledged to fight on. These men were cast from an iron mold to withstand all the disease, bad food, and combat that I simply cannot fathom. Wow, getting shot in the head, recovering and walking home 75 miles-taken all in stride by what I consider the finest set of Americans ever; little wonder it lasted 4 years and cost 650,000 lives.

[@tomservo5347]

I currently reside in Gladstone, MO which is really part of North Kansas City. I grew up on a small farm near Braymer, a town of 900 or so. It's been my dream to get moved out of the city and to get back out to the farm but meaningful employment is lacking out there. I come from a long line of Republicans, back to my great-grandfather who moved from Virginia as a boy with $5 in his pocket and a 6th grade education. He was able to build himself up to shipping off 20 railroad cars full of swine to the Kansas City stockyards but lost it all during the '29 crash. I do consider myself very conservative on the role of government but I'm very frustrated at the GOP's apparent lack of backbone these last few years, at least in DC. I'm pleased with our state legislature who have toed the line against our liberal governor. (For example, passing a bill stating that Missouri will not recognize any Federal bill infringing the 2nd Amendment. What part of "shall not be infringed" do liberals not understand? (It shows their thinking on government power.) I can go on and get very agitated on this subject. Long story short I wished I'd been able to teach history or civics but college seems to think I need to know algebraic formulas to do so and that's my Achilles Heel. Anyhow Springfield is about 3 hours from here-it'd be great to talk. The furthest South I've ever been is Tennessee. Shiloh would probably be the closest major battlefield to me.

Its location is several miles east of Kinston, which is about 20 miles east of the important railroad junction of Goldsborough. The battle there was Bragg's attempt to prevent Union forces who were advancing westward along the rail line from New Bern towards Goldsboro. The main objective of those Federal forces was to capture Goldsborough and to be prepared to resupply Sherman's army when it reached Goldsborough.
