"By the time the Atlanta Campaign began in 1864, striking changes had emerged in the tactics employed by both sides. The war had reached what General William T. Sherman termed its "Professional stage" and tactics of concealment and cover were adopted which made the battlefield resemble those of World War I." -- Preface.
