Appendix B (2).

General Johnston estimated the Federal force in his front at 15,000 to 20,000; in the Lower Green River country at 3,000; near Camp Dick Robinson, at 10,000; and elsewhere in Northern Kentucky, at 10,000. These figures were substantially correct.

Sherman's command, from his own account, may be tabulated thus:
Fourteen regiments at Nolin (his figures)13,000
Twenty-eight regiments mentioned (estimated)26,000
Nelson's command4,000
Ten regiments not mentioned,000
Total48,000

This does not include Home Guards.
