    Perryville - The Battle of Perryville. On October 8, 1862 Confederate General Braxton Bragg, after attending the inauguration of the secessionist governor of Kentucky, began assembling his scattered Army to join General Edmund Kirby-Smith. Bragg's Army was drawn up and in full battle dress when Union troops commanded by General Don Carlos Buell unexpectedly encountered the Confederate force. An extremely bloody battle was fought with the Confederates achieving a tactical success which enabled them to retain the field. During the night Bragg withdrew eastward to join Kirby-Smith.
