Book excerpt: Excerpt from Major-General Joseph Hooker and the Troops From the Army of the Potomac at Wauhatchie, Lookout Mountain and Chattanooga: Together With General Hooker's Military Record, From the Files of the War Department, Adjutant General's Office, U. S. A Their arrival surprised Rosecrans at Chickamauga and produced a result calling for immediate reinforcement. That reinforcement, sent when the gallant Army of the Cumberland was on the verge of starvation, accomplished its immediate purpose in opening up the line of communication with Chattanooga that Rosecrans most brilliant strategy had conquered, and made possible a new and future base of operations, which, but for the timely arrival of Hooker with our Potomac troops, might possibly have been lost through the strength of the reinforced enemy. That detachment under General Hooker, subsequently became part of the Army of the Cumberland until separated and merged into the Army of Georgia under General Sherman for the great pictorial March to the Sea, while its gallant and best beloved Commander, the grand soldier, whom every true patriot and soldier that served under him placed at the highest pinnacle for ability and true greatness, George H. Thomas, was left to guard and defend the lines and territory which the Army of the Cumberland had conquered. This brief outline covers the events which brought together two corps of the Army of the Potomac with the Army of the Cumberland, and made them part of that Army. This service caused your special recognition today, and through its results, a knowledge on the part of all who participated, of the character and training of both armies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did "Fighting Joe" Hooker of the Army of the Potomac lose his nerve during the Chancellorsville Campaign of 1863? Perhaps history has failed to recognize Major General Joseph Hooker's true commander's intent for this campaign. Hooker's intent was simple: maneuver forces to Lee's flank and rear in order to force a withdrawal of Confederate troops from Fredericksburg. Hooker had no intention of engaging in a "risky confrontation" with General Robert E. Lee and the army of northern Virginia. Hooker's plan would fail due to his own steadfast belief in the ability of his plan to force Lee to withdraw. To say that Lee defeated the army of the Potomac is misleading because Lee did not defeat the army, he defeated Hooker as he fought a very effective defensive battle that removed the federal threat from Virginia due to Hooker's failings as an army commander.
