Book Synopsis Civil War Ghosts of Georgia by : Courtney McInvale

Download or read book Civil War Ghosts of Georgia written by Courtney McInvale. This book was released on 2024-01-16. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Courtney McInvale continues our journey with a closer lens on the men of Georgia - some of whom became officers and even generals, brothers who became soldiers fighting in arms together and those whose names became synonymous with the word "hero" or "legend" in the Peach State. From General Longstreet in Gainesville to the brothers Jeffers in Macon, we meet the souls who have made themselves known in their spectral presence or legendary stories and who represent all the unknown soldiers whose names we do not know or whose stories were not recorded. As the war slowly made its way to Georgia's doorstep in the first couple of years before it left the fighting men of the North and South on the battlefields of their Western Theater landscape, Georgia's sons found themselves across the Eastern Theater from Chancellorsville to Gettysburg, Sharpsburg to Murfreesboro and beyond. Georgia had one of the largest shows of force and provided a massive landscape to the American Civil War. As such, there remains a spirit of a fighting Georgia, spirits of her conflicted past and plentiful tales of souls who have long left this physical world, yet have left behind legacies, legend, and tales of curious lore. Explore where the men of Georgia fought and how they banded together as brothers in arms, as friends and as family. Journey through the war in Georgia's backyard and beyond, and learn how the Georgia of present is still defined by the harrowing past of 1861-1865 in Civil War Ghosts of Georgia. Georgia's sites provide the setting of some of the most phenomenal supernatural and legendary stories, and together in Volume 2, we will discuss the most haunting legends that come from this corner of the Deep South.

Book excerpt: The author of the Civil War Explorer series unearths the ghostly legends and lore that haunt Georgia’s capital city since the War Between the States. The Atlanta metropolis is one of America’s most modern and progressive cities, it’s easy to forget that 150 years ago it was the scene of a long and deadly campaign. Union general William T. Sherman hammered relentlessly against Atlanta at Kennesaw Mountain, Peachtree Creek, Ezra Church, and Jonesboro. Months later, as he began his infamous March to the Sea, much of Atlanta was destroyed by fire. Thousands died in the fighting, and thousands more succumbed to wounds and disease in large hospitals constructed around the city. Today, ghosts of Atlanta’s Civil War haunt battlefields, hospital sites, cemeteries, homes, and commercial structures, all a testament to the tragic history of the city. Join author Jim Miles as he details the Civil War spirits that still haunt Atlanta.
