An overall clean, solid copy of this scarce pamphlet on The Battle of Griswoldville or "Georgia's Gettysburg," November 21-22, 1864.The Battle of Griswoldville was fought on November 22, 1864, during the American Civil War, as part of Union General William Tecumseh Sherman's "March to the Sea." The battle took place near Griswoldville, Georgia, and was a clash between Union forces under Brigadier General Charles Walcutt and a Confederate militia composed mainly of elderly men and young boys, led by Brigadier General Pleasant J. Phillips.The Confederates launched a poorly coordinated attack on the Union troops, who were well-entrenched and armed with superior firepower. The battle resulted in a devastating defeat for the Confederates, who suffered heavy casualties while the Union forces incurred minimal losses.The Battle of Griswoldville was notable for its lopsided nature and is remembered as a tragic example of the desperation of the Confederate war effort late in the conflict. It was one of the few significant engagements during Sherman's march, which aimed to cripple the Confederate war effort by destroying infrastructure and resources in Georgia. Good.
