By 9 o'clock on the morning of September 22 my command took up a
position within the heavy line of intrenchments at Chattanooga, the
greater part of which defenses had been thrown up since the army
commenced arriving there the day before. The enemy, having now
somewhat recovered from the shock of the recent battle, followed
carefully, and soon invested us close into our lines with a
parallel system of rifle-pits. He also began at once to erect
permanent lines of earthworks on Missionary Ridge and to establish
himself strongly on Lookout Mountain. He then sent Wheeler's
cavalry north of the Tennessee, and, aided greatly by the
configuration of the ground, held us in a state of partial siege,
which serious rains might convert into a complete investment. The
occupation of Lookout Mountain broke our direct communication with
Bridgeport-our sub-depot—and forced us to bring supplies by way of
the Sequatchie Valley and Waldron's Ridge of the Cumberland
Mountains, over a road most difficult even in the summer season,
but now liable to be rendered impassable by autumn rains. The
distance to Bridgeport by this circuitous route was sixty miles,
and the numerous passes, coves, and small valleys through which the
road ran offered tempting opportunities, for the destruction of
trains, and the enemy was not slow to take advantage of them.
Indeed, the situation was not promising, and General Rosecrans
himself, in communicating with the President the day succeeding the
battle of Chickamauga, expressed doubts of his ability to hold the
gateway of the Cumberland Mountains.

mužoch a deťoch, ktorým jediné rozhodnutie zmenilo život. V poradí
štrnásta kniha od obľúbenej Evity Urbaníkovej prináša príbeh, ktorý
je zasadený do prostredia rodiny a medziľudských vzťahov. Citát:
Niekedy máme v živote jednoducho smolu. Niekedy sa dostaneme do
prúseru, ani nevieme ako. Ale niekedy si za všetko, čo sa deje,
môžeme sami.
