The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the critical transition in leadership as Ulysses S.

It details the strategic importance of Chattanooga, the logistics involved in the campaigns, and introduces the tensions and interactions among key military figures, including the shifting perceptions of Rosecrans' capabilities, the complexities of military organization, and the urgent need for decisive action as Confederate forces mobilize.
