woman or girl has not felt a thrill of
emotion when reading of the gallant
fighter, Thomas, at Chickamauga?
The feat performed by this Virginia-born
soldier on the 20th of September, 1863, is con
sidered one of the most glorious of the whole warr
In the crisis of the' battle on that day, all
depended on the left, under his command. If
that yielded, the army would be utterly routed.
But Thomas held fast; he kept his position against
the whole of Bragg' s Army, and at night deliber
ately withdrew to Chattanooga, picking up over
500 prisoners on the way.
The complete story of how only the stability
of this gallant general averted overwhelming
defeat for the northern Army? and his deeds o?
bravery on Lookout Mountain and Missionary
Ridge, is told iti detail and fully illustrated in the
Great 10th Section
of the

All the momentous deeds and events of the jpreat battles
of Chickamauga, Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge the
generals urging forward their troops, the men and boys in the
trenches, the cannoneers behind the guns are here revealed with
out prejudice, without bias-granting full credit to Blue ur.d
Gray alike. The description of the
Battle of Chickamauga
the greatest battle fought by the western armies of the Civil
War gives a vivid picture of a contest that in its dimensions and
murderousness was only exceeded by Gettysburg and the Wilder
ness. Here you read of the resolute and impetuous charge, the
rush of heavy columns sweeping out from the shadow and gloom
of the forest into the open fields flooded with sunlight, the glitter
of arms, the onward dash of artillery and mounted men, the noise
of firearms of whistling balls, of grape-shot and bursting shell
then the retreat of the foe and the shouts of the victorious hosts.
The Battles on Lookout Mountain
and Missionary Ridge
also described in Section 10, carry the reader to the end of the
battles in front of Chattanooga, where Bragg's Army had been
defeated, and from which it had to retreat to the mountains of
Georgia.
The story of the far-famed "battle above the clouds," and
how the boys in blue went up Missionary Ridge over rocks and
chasms, all lines broken, the flags far ahead, each surrounded by the
bravest, and how the Federal troops surrounded the crest, captured
the guns and turned them on the retreating foe will thrill you to
the marrow.
The War Pictures
reproduced in Section 10 show the country over which these bloody
conflicts took place and the actors in the great struggle. Many pictures
