Rebel Works in Front of Atlanta, Georgia, No. 2, photograph by George N. Barnard, c. 1865.
Depicted here are Confederate earthworks from the siege of Atlanta, part of the Atlanta Campaign in the American Civil War, in which Confederate forces were ultimately made to abandon the city, boosting Federal moral, contributing to Abraham Lincoln's re-election, and leading to Sherman's March to the Sea to degrade the South's will and ability to stay in the fight.
