-John Bell Hood's All or Nothing Gamble-

Following the fall of Atlanta in the September of 1864, Confederate General John Bell Hood sought a miracle. He knew that his Army of Tennessee was no match for a pitched battle against the unified Federal army now facing himand so he sought to evade destruction by doing the unexpected; he turned north and headed his army towards central Tennessee.

His plan was simple -divide and conquer. By moving north, he could threaten Union lines of communication. He envisioned a liberated Tennessee that would rally to his army, swell his ranks with new recruits and eventually cross the Ohio River and invade the north. But before this plan could succeed, Nashville had to fall, but bloody Franklin stood between Hood and Nashville.
