Wanting to avoid the same fate as Atlanta, the city of Savannah surrendered to the North without a fight.

Explanation:

  • Savannah may have been spared the destruction on Sherman's March to the Sea that befell other southern towns, but the notorious general and his men captured her wheat, weapons, and cannons and held the region for many weeks.
  • Before the war many well-known Confederate Officers, including William Hardee, Francis Bartow, A. P. Lawton, G. Moxley Sorrel, Henry Jackson, and Hugh Mercer, stayed in Savannah. After the battle, Confederate Army Chief General Joseph E. Johnston traveled to Savannah where he remained for many years before moving to Virginia.
