"Tennessee [Thommason] was the wit and good nature of the company.... His bye-word was 'Bully for Bragg; he's Hell on retreat, and will whip the Yankees yet.' "

Great question, Lee. The last few years have seen some fine Western theatre studies, but a multi-volume study of the Atlanta campaign is still needed.

Amen the AoT has been left out like a step child too long.
A detailed, analytical study of the entire 1862 Kentucky Campaign (a Kentucky Campaign equivalent to Grabau's "NINETY-EIGHT DAYS" ABOUT THE vICKSBURG cAMPAIGN) detailing the entire campaign by both Kirby Smith and Braxton Bragg with a complete order of battle for all forces involved and coverage of all battles (Perryville, Richmond, Munfordsville, Cumberland Gap, etc.) with the appropriate maps would enhance Civil War scholarship as well as Army of Tennessee knowledge.
