Best Answer

Confederate forces under General Joseph Johnston built fortified positions at New Hope Church in Georgia. Union General Joseph Hooker led his troops ahead of those under General Thomas to test these defenses. This was on May 25, 1864. The Union's frontal assaults on the Southern defenses proved futile and costly. Union attempts over two days frustrated General William Sherman who had charge of three Union armies under three different generals. Reportedly Sherman "wanted out of this hell hole ". By May 26, 1864 this battle as over. The defeat was hoisted on Union General Joesph Hooker.
