Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg:
An historian has described Gen. Braxton Bragg as an "energetic but quarrelsome officer who had trouble securing the loyalty of his subordinates." Bragg's failure to pursue the Union army aggressively after his Chickamauga victory increased dissension in his ranks. But Confederate President Jefferson Davis did not relieve him of command of the Army of Tennessee until after his defeat at Chattanooga. |
