The Tour

In May 1864 William T. Sherman marched three armies out of the Georgia mountains toward Atlanta, and Joseph E. Johnston met him ridge by ridge across Bartow, Paulding, and Cobb counties. This driving route traces that grinding two-month advance in order, from the rock cut at Allatoona Pass through the 'Hell Hole' battlefields of New Hope Church and Pickett's Mill to the bloody slopes of Kennesaw Mountain and the earthen forts of the Chattahoochee River Line.
