Vertical image, "Rosecrans' Victory March", Church, Cincinnati, 1863, 8pp. Fine. A striking deep color cover shows Rosecrans leading the charge on horseback with shells exploding in front of him. Perhaps inspired by his The Tullahoma Campaign which was characterized by flawless maneuvers and very low casualties, as Rosecrans forced Bragg to retreat back to Chattanooga. Tullahoma is considered a "brilliant" campaign by many historians. Abraham Lincoln wrote, "The flanking of Bragg at Shelbyville, Tullahoma and Chattanooga is the most splendid piece of strategy I know of."
