"Shrouds of Glory", From Atlanta to Nashville: The Last Great Campaign of the Civil War, by Winston Groom, is a great book. quote, "A well -written narrative... Groom's accounts of the slaughter of Hood's men at Franklin and their overrunning at Nashville by the Union forces of George Thomas convey the horror of the Civil War battlefields without sacrificing narrative clarity. An excellent introduction to a complex campaign." Highly readable and intensely evocative, a fine addition to the growing body of literature about the western war, once largely a forgotten footnote to the 'real' action in the East. I think you may find this book interesting.
