Book Description
Excerpt from The Battle of Franklin, November 30, 1864: The Bloodiest Engagement of the War Between the States The battle of Franklin, Tennessee, November 30, 1864, was, on some parts of the line, the bloodiest of the Civil War. Never on any field did braver men go. Nor did men ever dare and do more than was done by the Confederates to whom it fell to bear the heat and burden of that fateful day. That much will be demonstrated in the following narrative so plainly that the assertion may hereafter be accepted as a historic truth; for no statement of material fact will be made which the writer is not prepared to authenticate. To place a proper estimate upon the prowess of the Army of Tennessee at Franklin it is necessary to keep in mind its antecedents, in the then recent past.

Book Description
The Army of Tennessee’s grueling and costly victory against a fortified Union encampment is expertly recounted in this engaging Civil War history. In the fall of 1864, as William T. Sherman led Federal forces on his March to the Sea, Confederate General John Bell Hood chose to strike northward into Tennessee. There, he hoped to cripple the Federal supply infrastructure and strike the Army of the Cumberland under George Thomas. By defeating Thomas’s army in detail, Hood hoped to force Sherman to come northward to the rescue. On November 30, in a small country town called Franklin, Hood caught part of Thomas’s army outside of its stronghold of Nashville. But what began as a promising opportunity soon turned grim. When subordinates voiced their concerns, Hood’s response was unflinching. “If we are to die,” said the Confederate officer, “let us die like men.” As wave after murderous wave crashed against the Federal fortifications, Hood’s Army of Tennessee shattered itself. It eventually found victory—but at a cost so bloody and so chilling, the name “Franklin” would ever after be synonymous with disaster. Historian William Lee White, whose devotion to the Army of Tennessee has taken him from the dense forests of northwest Georgia to the gates of Atlanta and back into Tennessee, now pens the penultimate chapter in the army’s storied history in Let Us Die Like Men.

Book Description
On November 30th, 1864, more than 40,000 Union and Confederate troops converged on Franklin, Tennessee, and fought one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. Said one who saw it, "It was as if the devil had full possession of the earth." The events of that battle have passed not only into history, but into legend. Names like Tod Carter and John Bell Hood have found their ways into our poems and songs and folk tales. But what do these stories have to say to us today? Through the power of music and drama, this original work takes us back in time to witness the tragic struggle between father and son, between master and slave, between North and South. It's a tale of a broken family and a broken nation. But in the end, the story of the Battle of Franklin is about more than mere history--it's about the conflict in all of us, and our hope of restoration.
