In the Battle of Atlanta, which took place from July 22 to September 2, 1864, the key Union general was William Tecumseh Sherman, who commanded the Western Army. The Confederate forces were led by General John Bell Hood. The battle was part of the American Civil War and aimed to secure Atlanta as a strategic supply center for the Union. Sherman's victory ultimately contributed to his famous "March to the Sea."
