In several excerpts, General King admits he knew little about the second day of the Battle of Chickamauga. He shares his recollections and impressions of the officers involved in the battle. He looks forward with “keen interest” to the completion of the account. King appreciates the amended view of Thomas John Wood and regards it as most judicious.
