he attacks corinth from the north. he is slow getting into position and on october 3rd, the union army is allowed to consolidate and awaiting his arrival. this will be william rosecrans. there's a small gap between one of the two union brigades. they exploit the gap and drive the union forces back. so here's the front lines and the union forces will fall back closer to corinth, where on october 4th, this is going to happen. now the attack is delayed because a number of different reasons. lewis hebert's sickness postpones it until 9:00. i don't think it would have made any difference. i feel sorry for these soldiers, both sides, that have to attack the strongly entrenched enemy lines. entrenchments, that kind of firepower facing them and the confederates momentarily break through in battery robinette. it's just fleeting, if you will. the then result is a bloodied debacle and van dorn has to get out of there as best he can. rosecrans loses 2,500. van dorn loses 4,200. to show you the extent of his losses, this is part of

the march up from corinth that is not going well. the attack, the surprise the confederates think they need does not appear too happen. and so bragg and beauregard basically argued to go back, turn around will go back to corinth this attack is nd pointless. but polk supports albert sidney johnston, why shouldn't he? he is a friend of johnson. by the way, if you are not the student of tactics, not a student of formations and how troops fight and you feel that will ruin your military career , never fear leonidas polk knew nothing of those things and it did not stop him. shiloh of course turns into a confederate retreat the army retreats, gets replaced bragg takes command in the summer of 1862. you may have read or heard that braxton bragg remained in command of the army of tennessee from the summer of 62 until the late fall come november 27 of 1863 because he was a friend of jefferson davis'. that is not actually true. davis held no great animosity towards bragg. but bragg believed davis did. as a matter fact at a dinner with sherman i

there really created in the gathering at corinth in 1862. and we get the battle of shiloh. and most interesting for our purposes here, are the rivalries, the problems that grow up out of the battle of shiloh. braxton bragg and his oh so winning way when he arrives in corinth and sees looinds polk's troops,eonidas polk's troops, the first he writes in a letter to his wife, he refers to polk's force as polk's mob. a sneer at their lack of training and discipline. and on the eve of battle, november 5th. and so bragg and bow reegered. if you are not a student of tactics. not a student of formations and how troops fight. and you fear that will ruin your military career. never fear. leonidas polk new nothing of those things. it didn't stop him. shiloh a confederate defeat. the army retreats. beauregard takes his leaf and gets replaced bragg gets command in summer of 1862. you may have read or heard braxton bragg remained in command of the army of tennessee from the summer of '62 until the late fall, till november 27th of 1863 because he was a friend of jefferson davis'. that's no
