Text Appearing After Image:
POSITION OF THE TWO ARMIES IN TENNESSEE. 029 centre, and commanding the passes of Lookout mountain and MissionEidge, and being the gateway also to East Tennessee from the south, wasEosecrans ultimate objective, and he had not ordered an advance until hesaw the way clear to its capture and occupation ; not indeed, withoutsome hard fighting, but as the result of a severe and protracted struggle. The two armies at this time varied but little in numbers, Eosecranshaving probably a small superiority iu infantry, and Bragg in cavalry.The region of Middle Tennessee, south of Murfreesboro, is broken andhilly, the land rising into high and infertile plateaus, which have a spongysoil, that under the influence of heavy rains becomes almost like quick-sand. These plateaus or barrens are approached by a few narrow, diffi-cult, rocky passes, which afford strong natural fortifications to the armyholding possession of them. Two affluents of the Tennessee, Duck and Elkrivers, cross these rocky barrens
