Book Description
This work spanning twelve extensive volumes is the result of contributions by many Southern men to the literature of the United States that treats of the eventful years in which occurred the momentous struggle called by Mr. A. H. Stephens "the war between the States." These contributions were made on a well-considered plan, to be wrought out by able writers of unquestionable Confederate record who were thoroughly united in general sentiment and whose generous labors upon separate topics would, when combined, constitute a library of Confederate military history and biography. According to the great principle in the government of the United States that one may result from and be composed of many — the doctrine of E pluribus unum--it was considered that intelligent men from all parts of the South would so write upon the subjects committed to them as to produce a harmonious work which would truly portray the times and issues of the Confederacy and by illustration in various forms describe the soldiery which fought its battles. Upon this plan two volumes — the first and the last-comprise such subjects as the justification of the Southern States in seceding from the Union and the honorable conduct of the war by the Confederate States government; the history of the actions and concessions of the South in the formation of the Union and its policy in securing the existing magnificent territorial dominion of the United States; the civil history of the Confederate States, supplemented with sketches of the President, Vice-President, cabinet officers and other officials of the government; Confederate naval history; the morale of the armies; the South since the war, and a connected outline of events from the beginning of the struggle to its close. The two volumes containing these general subjects are sustained by the other volumes of Confederate military history of the States of the South involved in the war. Each State being treated in separate history permits of details concerning its peculiar story, its own devotion, its heroes and its battlefields. The authors of the State histories, like those of the volumes of general topics, are men of unchallenged devotion to the Confederate cause and of recognized fitness to perform the task assigned them. It is just to say that this work has been done in hours taken from busy professional life, and it should be further commemorated that devotion to the South and its heroic memories has been their chief incentive. This is volume nine out of twelve, covering the Civil War in Tennessee.

Book Description
The Volunteer State was second only to Virginia for the number of battles fought on its soil during the American Civil War. Union and Confederate Armies waged war across the state of Tennessee vying for control of its major towns, roads, and waterways. Confederate Military History of Tennessee traces the history of the state and its regiments from secession, the raising of troops, through the major battles, to the final surrender. Tennessee troops participated in most of the major battles and campaigns in the Western and Eastern theaters of war. In the West, Tennessee troops fought at Belmont, Forts Henry and Donelson, Shiloh, Perryville, Murfreesboro, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, Chickamauga, Lookout Mountain, Atlanta, Franklin, and Bentonville. In the East, two Tennessee brigades faced the enemy at Manassas, Antietam, Gettysburg, Wilderness, Spotsylvania Court House, Petersburg, and Appomattox Court House. One chapter is devoted to the cavalry operations of John H. Morgan and Nathan Bedford Forrest while other chapters describe Tennessee's contribution to the Confederate medical department, clergy, and Confederate and Union navies. The author, James D. Porter, served on the staff of Confederate Benjamin Franklin Cheatham.

Book Description
Nowhere in the annals of United States military history is there a more tragic, yet valorous, story than that of the Army of Tennessee. Unlike its companion fighting unit, the Army of Northern Virginia which was commanded throughout the Civil War by one of the great military figures of all time, Robert E. Lee, the history of the Army of Tennessee is one of ever-changing commanders, of bickering and wrangling among its leaders, and a discouraging succession of disappointments and might-have-beens.

This is one volume in a library of Confederate States history, in twelve volumes, written by distinguished men of the South, and edited by Gen. Clement A. Evans of Georgia.

The first and last volumes comprise such subjects as the justification of the Southern States in seceding from the Union and the honorable conduct of the war by the Confederate States government; the history of the actions and concessions of the South in the formation of the Union and its policy in securing the territorial dominion of the United States; the civil history of the Confederate States; Confederate naval history; the morale of the armies; the South since the war, and a connected outline of events from the beginning of the struggle to its close. The other ten volumes each treat a separate State with details concerning its peculiar story, its own devotion, its heroes, and its battlefields. Volume 8 is Tennessee.
