Rather the gallant hood of Texas found Hell in Tennessee.

The even more gallant Schofield and Thomas slowed him, stopped him, and pursued Hood to destruction.

Very true. The new info i referenced will come out in a book in June this year— an incredible find of private personal letters. Written by a parallel line of relations to Hood, a Sam Hood. Should be very interesting.
The whole TN campaign should never have been carried out. US was seriously in control of the area just for starters. So much wasted lives— Franklin a debacle.
