For that work he selected well his lieutenants,Grant's prompt decision was that Bragg must be driven from the position he had chosen.
For that work he selected well his lieutenants, Sherman, Thomas and Hooker, and they did it successfully.
Bragg, always fighting valiantly, but ever face to face with a stronger enemy, never once possessing men enough, assailing or assailed, to mass against a compact foe, saw himself worsted at every point.
He found it necessary to retreat to Ringgold, which he did on November 26, 1863.
Here he was soon after relieved from command by Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, and called to Richmond to serve as President Davis' chief of staff.
