Perryville
— The Battle for Kentucky October 8, 1862 —
Forced back from the hills above Doctor's Creek, the Union soldiers retreated to this position. Their lines were in chaos - regiments intermingled, the wounded were left behind and some panicked troops raced for the rear. Most soldiers, however, continued to stubbornly defy the Southern advance.HM Number | HM1NUH |
