1 negative (2 plates) : glass, stereograph, wet collodion. Photograph of the War in the West. These photographs are of the Battle of Chattanooga, September-November 1863. After Rosecrans' debacle at Chickamauga, September 19-20, 1863, Bragg's army occupied the mountains that ring about the vital railroad center of Chattanooga. Grant, brought in to save the situation, steadily built up offensive strength, and on November 23-25, burst the blockade in a series of brilliantly executed attacks. The photographs, probably all taken the following year when Chattanooga was the base for Sherman's Atlanta campaign, include scenes on Lookout Mountain, stormed by Hooker on November 24. No known restrictions on publication. For information, see "Civil war photographs, 1861-1865," Title from Milhollen and Mugridge. Two plates form left (LC-B811-2655B) and right (LC-B811-2655A) halves of a stereograph pair. Corresponding print is in LOT 4177.
