Description
1891 Civil War 1ed Life of William Tecumseh SHERMAN US Union General Americana
“It is only those who have neither fired a shot, nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell.”
― William T. Sherman
William Tecumseh Sherman was a 19th-century American military officer, known for his outstanding service as a Union Army general during the Civil War. Willis Fletcher Johnsons Life of William Tecumseh Sherman was a late 19th-century biography of Shermans military career as well as his personal life before and after.
Johnsons description of Shermans character and his military career shed light on his strategic innovation. Shermans approach to command and strategy would have him later declared by British historian, B.H. Liddell Hart as “…the first modern general.” This work portrays Gen. Shermans military exploits in great detail expertly conveying the exceptional, yet polarizing strategies Sherman employed against the Confederate army while also showcasing the respect his soldiers had for him under his command.
