This book was released on 1990-10-01 with total page 1086 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as prophet of modern war and condemned as a harbinger of modern barbarism, William Tecumseh Sherman is the most controversial general of the American Civil War. “War is cruelty, and you cannot refine it,” he wrote in fury to the Confederate mayor of Atlanta, and his memoir is filled with dozens of such wartime exchanges. With the propulsive energy and intelligence that marked his campaigns, Sherman describes striking incidents and anecdotes and collects dozens of his incisive and often outspoken wartime orders and reports. This complex self-portrait of an innovative and relentless American warrior provides firsthand accounts of the war’s crucial events—Shiloh, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, the Atlanta campaign, the marches through Georgia and the Carolinas.

Book excerpt: Before his spectacular career as General of the Union forces, William Tecumseh Sherman experienced decades of failure and depression. Drifting between the Old South and new West, Sherman witnessed firsthand many of the critical events of early nineteenth-century America: the Mexican War, the gold rush, the banking panics, and the battles with the Plains Indians. It wasn't until his victory at Shiloh, in 1862, that Sherman assumed his legendary place in American history. After Shiloh, Sherman sacked Atlanta and proceeded to burn a trail of destruction that split the Confederacy and ended the war. His strategy forever changed the nature of warfare and earned him eternal infamy throughout the South. Sherman's Memoirs evoke the uncompromising and deeply complex general as well as the turbulent times that transformed America into a world power. This Penguin Classics edition includes a fascinating introduction and notes by Sherman biographer Michael Fellman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Major General William T. Sherman, and His Campaigns "Never name your child after a living man," said a very wise man to the author of this volume. As we do not know what the future of any man will be, it may be unwise to honor him by giving his name to your child. For a similar reason, it may be injudicious to write the history of a living man. Whatever the future history of General W. T. Sherman may be, the world witnesseth that he has carved out for himself a name and a place in history, and won a home in the hearts of his countrymen, that can never be blotted out. It is our hope and prayer to God, that no act of his in the future may tarnish his great name and heroic deeds. It is because General Sherman has occupied so prominent a place in many of the most important and stirring scenes of the great war against the rebellion, that we have endeavored to cull the most important facts and incidents, and make as full and fair a record of them as can now be done, in order that as little as possible of valuable history may be lost to posterity.

Download or read book War and Ruin written by Anne J. Bailey and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2003 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "March to the Sea." It shocked Georgians from Atlanta to Savannah. In the late autumn of 1864, as General William Tecumseh Sherman's troops cut a four-week-long path of terror through Georgia, he accomplished his objective: to destroy civilian morale and with it their support for the Confederate cause. His actions elicited a passionate reaction. Sherman became the ruthless personification of evil, an arch-villain who made war on innocent women, children, and old men. But does the Savannah Campaign deserve the reputation it has been given? And was Sherman truly this brutal? In War and Ruin: William T. Sherman and the Savannah Campaign, Anne J. Bailey examines this event and investigates just how much truth is behind the popular historical notions. Bailey contends that the psychological horror rather than the actual physical damage-which was not as devastating as believed-led to the wilting of Southern morale. This dissolution of resolve helped lead to ultimate Confederate defeat as well as to the development of Sherman's infamous reputation. War and Ruin looks at the "March to the Sea" from its inception in Atlanta to its culmination in Savannah. This is a chronicle of not just the campaign itself, but also a revealing description of how the people of Georgia were affected. War and Ruin brilliantly combines military history and human interest to achieve a convincing portrayal of what really happened in Sherman's epic effort to smash Confederate spirit in Georgia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sherman's Memoirs are a detailed account of his life and military career, providing a firsthand perspective on many key events of the Civil War. First published in 1875 and later revised in 1886, the two-volume work is considered one of the most important personal narratives from the Civil War era. The Memoirs cover Sherman's early life, his experiences before the war, and his detailed recounting of the Civil War campaigns. He provides insights into his strategic thinking, the challenges he faced, and his interactions with other key figures of the time, including Ulysses S. Grant and Abraham Lincoln. Sherman's writing style is straightforward and unembellished, reflecting his pragmatic and direct approach to both life and warfare. He defends his controversial tactics during the war, particularly his "March to the Sea," arguing that the harsh methods were necessary to bring about a swift end to the conflict and save lives in the long run.
