Atlanta was captured by William T. Sherman - but it was not actually his task to do so. Sherman was told to forget about capturing territory and simply destroy the Army of Tenessee, wherever he found it. When that army escaped from Atlanta, Sherman was not confident of being able to pursue and destroy it in difficult mountain terrain while his supply-line was so vulnerable. Instead, he decided to occupy (and largely destroy) Atlanta, before embarking on his March to the Sea, where he could live off the land and forget his supply-line.

The important railroad center in Tennessee that was captured in 1863 is Chattanooga. Its strategic location made it a crucial supply and transportation hub during the Civil War, facilitating movements of troops and resources. The capture of Chattanooga by Union forces in September 1863 was a significant victory, leading to further advances into the Southern states. This victory also set the stage for the Battle of Chattanooga later that year, solidifying Union control over the region.
