^ "Battle  Above  the  Clouds' 


In  the  early  part  of  September,  1863,  General  Bragg  held  Chattanooga.    Rosecrans, 
to  gain  this  important  position,  determined  by  outflanking  him  to  compel  his  adver- 
sary to  withdraw.     He  succeeded  in  crossing,  with  the  main  body  of  the  Federal  army, 
the  Tennessee  River  some  miles  below  the  city.     Bragg  promptly  moved  south  as  far  as 
Lafayette,  Ga.,  and  the  two  armies  fought  the  terrible  Chickamauga  battle. 

The  exhausted  Union   army  retired   to  Chattanooga.     Soon  General  Grant  assumed  the 

command  of  the  Federal  forces,  and,  heavily  reinforced,  on  November  23d  ordered  a  general  attack 

on  the  enemy's  lines.     General  Hooker  carried  Lookout  Mountain,  and  the  divisions  under  Thomas 

carried  Mission  Ridge,  on  November  25th.     After  the  famous  three  days'  battle,  Bragg  withdrew  his 

army  into  Georgia. 

According  to  Col.  Archer  Anderson,  the  Federal  force  numbered  59,000,  the  Confederate  about 
55,000.  Generals  Boynton  and  Cist  claim  that  the  Confederates  outnumbered  their  adversaries  by 
several  thousand.  The  Federal  loss  was  more  than  16,000,  that  of  the  Confederates  between  17,0011  and 
18,000,  on  each  side  considerable  more  than  25  per  cent  of  the  whole  force.  In  the  battles  about 
Chattanooga  the  Union  losses  were  nearly  5,300;  the  Confederate  loss  is  not  known.  There  were  many 
famous  soldiers  connected  with  the  military  movements  about  Chattanooga  and  Chickamauga  in  the 
fall  of  1863.  The  following  is  a  partial  list  of  Union  officers:  Grant,  Rosecrans,  Thomas.  Sherman, 
Hooker,  Sheridan,  Wood,  O.  O.  Howard,  and  Garfield,  then  an  officer  on  Rosecrans'  staff.  Gen.  W.  H. 
Lytle,  a  poet  of  considerable  reputation  as  well  as  a  gallant  soldier,  was  killed  at  Chickamauga.  On  the 
Confederate  side  were  such  men  as  Bragg,  Longstreet,  D.  H.  Hill,  Polk,  N.  B.  Forrest,  John  B.  Hood, 
Buckner,  and  others. 

Two  incidents  of  these  battles  have  become  famous.  The  first  was  the  gallant  stand  made  by 
General  Thomas,  after  the  rout  of  the  right  wing  of  the  Federal  army  at  Chickamauga.  For  several 
hours  he  stood  at  bay  against  overwhelming  numbers,  and  by  his  action  saved  the  army  from  destruc- 
tion.    The  second  was  Hooker's  "Battle  above  the  Clouds,"  since  celebrated  in  song  and  story.

MOCCASIN  BEND  AND  CHATTANOOGA,  TENN.,  FROM  POINT  PARK,  LOOKOUT  MOUNTAIN 


A    MOST    MAGNIFICENT    VIEW   SHOWING    SEVEN    STATES 


This  view  alone  is  worth  a  trip  to  Lookout  Mountain,  and  is  enthusiastically  conceded  by  all  who  have  seen 
it  to  be  one  of  the  finest  in  the  world.  Henry  M.  Stanley,  the  African  explorer,  standing  on  Point  Lookout, 
said:  "This  is  the  most  magnificent  view  in  the  world."  Prince  Henry,  of  Prussia,  exclaimed  :  "This  is 
magnificent;  there  is  nothing  in  all  Europe  that  is  finer!"  George  Bancroft,  the  eminent  historian,  at  the  age 
of  87,  said  of  it :  "In  all  my  travels  I  have  never  seen  any  scene  to  exceed  its  sublime  grandeur."  This  won- 
derful panorama,  with  its  splendid  variety  of  scene  and  intense  historical  interest,  is  visited  by  people  from  all 
parts  of  the  world.  The  seven  States  to  be  seen  are  :  Tennessee,  Georgia,  Alabama,  Kentucky,  North  Caro- 
lina, South  Carolina,  and  Virginia. 

Lookout  Mountain  is  one  of  the  "beauty  spots"  in  a  land  of  beauty ;  in  addition  to  this,  it  furnishes  the 
most  thrilling  page  in  all  the  history  of  Tennessee,  bearing  as  it  does  the  marks  of  many  wars,  and  of  two 
distinct  ra:3s.  First,  the  habitation  of  the  Indians,  from  whom  the  great  river  washing  its  base  received  the 
name,  that  afterward  became  the  name  of  the  State  —  Tennessee,  a  spoon. 


Visitors  from  the  North  make  special  pilgrimages  to  Lookout  Mountain,  and  are  unanimous  in  pronoun- 
cing the  view  unsurpassed  by  any  in  Europe.  Off  to  the  west,  the  purple  line  of  mountains  marks  the  trend  of 
Sand  and  Raccoon.  Easily  the  eye  may  follow  the  line  of  Walden's  Ridge,  another  historic  battlefield;  with 
Sherman  Heights  and  Cameron  Hill,  Missionary  Ridge,  and  the  faint,  far  purple  of  the  Great  Smokies  making 
the  last  link  in  this  magnificent  mountain  circumference.  Legends  and  lore  of  the  most  thrilling  nature 
attach  to  this  region. 

A  trolley  ride  of  seven  miles  on  top  of  the  mountain  connects  the  Incline  Railway  station  with  the  Moun- 
tain House,  Sunset  Park  and  Point  Lookout.  This  is  a  thrilling  ride  and  one  of  the  grandest  in  the 
country,  giving  visitors  a  view  of  Wauhatchie  Valley,  1,500  feet  below;  views  north,  east,  south  and  west, 
as  the  car  winds  around  the  summit  of  grand  old  Lookout.  From  the  Point  an  excellent  view  is  had  of  the 
Craven's  House  and  the  battlefield,  famous  as  the  "Battle  Above  the  Clouds."
