37 Weeks

Week 28 (October 27th - November 2nd)

Episode 28 | 1m 45s

The demolition of Atlanta continues as Union troops build fortifications within the city.

It is late October, 1864. Sherman’s photographer, George Barnard, climbs atop the Atlanta Female Institute to snap a panoramic view of the city. Though the scene appears peaceful, munition factories and railroad depots are discernible in the hazy distance. The Union army builds fortifications within the city while tearing down many homes and buildings, disconcerting even to some in the Union army.
