In June of 1864, William T. Sherman was making his famous march on Atlanta against the Confederate forces of Joseph Johnston. But standing at the gates of Atlanta was an imposing geographic feature known as Kennesaw Mountain. In this video, we're going to a spot known as "the Dead Angle" where some of the most brutal fighting of this battle took place. We also discover a personal connection that really made this a meaningful visit for me. Enjoy!
