  • Gen. Thomas' HQ at Kennesaw, July 4, 1864?

    I'm curious as to if anyone is acquainted with a photograph shown in Jim Miles' Fields of Glory: A History and Tour Guide of the Atlanta Campaign on page 101. The photograph at the top of the page (vaguely cited to "Library of Congress") is allegedly one of General Thomas' headquarters in front of Kennesaw Mountain on the fourth of July, 1864. There are several men in the foreground as well as what appear to be multiple Sibleys in the background, shaded by trees.

    Is this image available elsewhere?
