Abstract:
The greatest battle ever fought on the state's soil occurred at Bentonville March 19-21, 1865, when the army of General Joseph Johnston clashed with General William Sherman's. Sherman was driving toward Raleigh to capture it and end the war. Efforts are now being made to preserve this historic battlefield.
