Rosecrans bitterly reproached him with having imposed upon his troops this wearisome detour, and thus run the risk of not arriving in time for the battle which was preparing. However, McCook could not rush on a journey of discovery in a mountainous country which his cavalry had not explored; and, after all, this delay of his had no influence on the battle fought after he joined the rest of the army. On the 14th, in the evening, having reached Will's Valley the next day, he followed Sheridan on the road from Trenton to Johnson's Crook, while Johnson and Davis were taking, on the western side of Lookout Mountain, a direct road from Valley Head to Stevens' Gap.

Most of the soldiers are exemplary in their bearing and strict discipline: only the Eleventh corps, largely composed of German soldiers, who have brought with them across the sea the spirit of the old lansquenets, distinguishes itself by acts of pillage which the efforts of the honest and religious Howard fail to suppress.
