The Atlanta Campaign took place between May and September of1864. After the Union army of the North won a big battle against the Confederate army of the South in Tennessee, the Union army continued to move South towards Georgia. The leader of this army was General George William Sherman.
Sherman and his Union army marched into Atlanta. Atlanta was important for the Confederate army of the South because it was a key city for their supplies. Supplies such as guns, bullets, food, and other things needed to fight the war went through Atlanta. The Union army of the North wanted to capture Atlanta so they could really hurt the Confederate Army. General Sherman and his troops marched toward Atlanta where they fought many battles around the city.
The leader of the Confederate army in Atlanta, General Joseph E. Johnson gave a good fight, but the South lost the battles. This battle was really important because the South was not able to send supplies to troops, and it was now easy for General Sherman to head further South to Savannah, Georgia.
