37 Weeks
Week 12 (July 7 - July 13)
Episode 12 | 1m 45s
Union troops cross the Chattahoochee River, the last natural barrier protecting Atlanta.
In early July 1864, Sherman’s army cuts across Atlanta’s final defender: the Chattahoochee River. Outflanked, Johnston retreats and burns the railroad bridge in his wake. Johnston’s men still trust him despite his months-long inability to outmaneuver the enemy. While Sherman closes in, Atlanta’s women face the realities of war as nurses to the injured and dying. Civilians prepare for the worst.
