The Atlanta Campaign

The Atlanta Campaign is an Operational level wargame simulation of the 1864 North Georgia campaign fought between the Union armies of William T. Sherman and the Confederate Army of Tennessee led by Joseph E, Johnston. Abraham Lincoln's best hope for reelection against strong anti-war sentiment in the North depended upon the outcome of this campaign. If the South could hold Atlanta long enough, the Confederacy retained a hope for survival through a negotiated settlement of the War.
