More than a hundred years ago, Civil War soldier, professor, and journalist Henry Boynton wrote a trio of works considered by historians to be some of the first authoritative sources on the Battles of Chickamauga and Chattanooga. Despite their obvious importance, these volumes have long since fallen out of print, relegated to the back shelves of academic libraries and historical societies.

More than a hundred years ago, Civil War soldier, professor, and journalist Henry Boynton wrote a trio of works considered by historians to be some of the first authoritative sources on the Battles of Chickamauga and Chattanooga. Despite their obvious importance, these volumes have long since fallen out of print, relegated to the back shelves of academic libraries and historical societies. Fortunately, they have now regained their place among the essential works of Civil War literature. Timothy B. Smith has combined Boynton's three short books--The Battle of Chickamauga, Georgia; Battles about Chattanooga, Tennessee; and The Campaign for Chattanooga--into a single, compact volume. As a gifted writer and actual participant in these engagements--he commanded the Thirty-fifth Ohio Volunteer Infantry--Boynton tells the story as he saw and understood it, offering his own commentary throughout the narrative. Ultimately, over the years, his take on the battles through his books and his work on the park itself became the de facto interpretation of the battles. >Timothy B. Smith is the author of This Great Battlefield of Shiloh, The Untold Story of Shiloh, The Golden Age of Battlefield Preservation, and A Chickamauga Memorial, all available from the University of Tennessee Press. He teaches history at the University of Tennessee at Martin.
