Synopsis "The End of the Civil War in Georgia: 1865"
The importance of Georgia in the Civil War is underscored in 1864 by Sherman's Atlanta Campaign and March to the Sea. Those two victories for the North turned the momentum of the War in the North's favor, and the taking of Atlanta directly led to Lincoln's reelection in November 1864. Georgia's involvement in the end of the War in 1865 was more subtle, but still significant. There were two battles - the last of the War - on April 16, 1865 (Columbus and West Point); there was the freeing of the worst of all of the Civil War prison camps at Andersonville; and there was the capture of Confederate President Jefferson Davis at Irwinville. While the surrenders of Robert E. Lee and Joseph Johnston in April 1865 can appropriately be assigned the tag of "the end of the Civil War", the last two battles of the War were fought in Georgia. And the "end of the Confederacy" can justifiably be associated with Davis' capture. The books includes 70+ illustrations.
