Photographic Views of Sherman's Campaign, Embracing Scenes of the Occupation of Nashville, the Great Battles around Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain, the Campaign of Atlanta, March to the Sea, and the Great Raid through the Carolinas. New York, 1866. "The Etawah river was to be crossed before reaching the pass, which was understood to be strongly fortified. The defenses of the Etawah bridge were known to be well laid out and carefully constructed. Plans of the railroad bridge over the Etawah had been in the hands of the Construction Corps for a sufficient length of time to enable them to furnish a duplicate." Barnard, George N.
