White Tecumseh Biography of William T. Sherman

A thoroughly researched biography of William Tecumseh Sherman, one of the most prominent generals of the Civil War, who is best remembered as the man who razed Atlanta and brilliantly marched his army to the sea cutting a swath of destruction through Georgia. The author is more sympathetic to Sherman, presenting him as brilliant but unhappy, and devotes far more consideration to Sherman's battles and marches than any previous biographer.
