The men were in the thick of the action not only at Perryville but also at Stones River and Chickamauga, and throughout the battles of the Atlanta campaign. At Chickamauga, Buzzards Roost, and Resaca, the Fifteenth Kentucky was called upon to fight Confederate Kentuckians - the "Orphan Brigade" commanded by former Kentucky Senator John C. Breckinridge."--BOOK JACKET.
