Civil War Campaigns in the West, Tullahoma to Ringgold Gap | Animated Battle Map

The Battle of Gettysburg and the Siege of Vicksburg takes center stage for most people when they think of 1863. However, the capture of Chattanooga by Union forces needs to be recognized as one of if not the most important campaign of 1863. The capture of Chattanooga severed the railroad that connected the Eastern and Western Theater of the Civil War. 1863 in Tennessee and Georgia encompassed the Tullahoma Campaign, the Battle of Chickamauga, the Battle of Brown's Ferry, the Battle of Wauhatchie, the Battle of Lookout Mountain, the Battle of Missionary Ridge, and the Battle of Ringgold Gap. These battles demonstrated a tug-of-war that the Union and Confederate armies in this sector had to control the valuable rail link between the East and the West.
