Description
This book is an historical analysis of Stewart's Division during the
Battle of Chickamauga, 19-20 September 1863. It determines what tactical
formations Stewart and his brigades employed, how this affected casualty
totals and their significance to the outcome of the engagements in Stewart's
sector.
This book concludes that Stewart's tactical formations contributed to
his success on the nineteenth. Stewart's failure on the twentieth was more
the responsibility of a higher echelon comander. In the final analysis
Stewart's leadership abilities were more a contributor to the success of
the division than the tactics that he employed.
