To paraphrase what Lee said about him...all lion, no fox.
Did Lee say that? Good call. General Hood was a great leader of men, and his personal courage was absolutely unmatched. In some situations, he was a darn good division or corps commander ... but he was SO out of his league in the last months of the War.
I sat on (what’s left of) the field in Franklin (being as they charged right up the US Highway that’s now there ;-) with the cold sweats and tears pouring down my face while my husband considered calling 911. It was so bad there.
