Photographer: US Army Center of Military History
Caption: Battlefield from Privet Knob
Additional Description: Battlefield from Privet Knob (one mile left), ca. 1880s photograph. The most famous assault of the Civil War was “Pickett’s Charge” on the last day of Gettysburg. But here at Franklin, Gen. John Bell Hood’s Army of Tennessee marched across an area twice as wide and twice as far as did the Army of Northern Virginia at Gettysburg, with almost twice as many men, and suffered more killed and wounded than were lost in Pickett’s Charge.
