United States, 39.76, -98.5United States, Georgia, Gordon County, Resaca, 34.58036, -84.94328Waud, Alfred R. (Alfred Rudolph), 1828-18911864-10-13Photograph of the War in the West. These photographs are of Sherman in Atlanta, September-November, 1864. After three and a half months of incessant maneuvering and much hard fighting, Sherman forced Hood to abandon the munitions center of the Confederacy. Sherman remained there, resting his war-worn men and accumulating supplies, for nearly two and a half months. During the occupation, George N. Barnard, official photographer of the Chief Engineer's Office, made the best documentary record of the war in the West; but much of what he photographed was destroyed in the fire that spread from the military facilities blown up at Sherman's departure on November 15.Title inscribed below image.Inscribed upper left: W.J.
