Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sherman's Campaign in the Carolinas, Vol. 2 December, 1864, was a busy month in the Department of the South. All the available troops had been sent up the Broad River, where, after some sharp fighting, they had secured a safe lodgment and intrenched themselves upon the Charleston and Savannah Railroad, to furnish a base of support to General Sherman, should he seek to reach the coast between Charleston and Savannah. Vast quantities of military stores had been accumulated at Hilton Head, and all were in daily expectancy of news from the army marching through Georgia. Long shall I remember the morning when a courier rode rapidly to headquarters with the despatch: Sherman is safe, Savannah is ours It thrilled through the ranks like elec tric fire. Cheer after cheer rang out along the lines as the nes spread from camp to camp. In a wild commotion of joy, in common with a grateful people, as the lightning flashed the news all over the North, our hearts went up in thanksgiving for Sherman's Christmas greeting and present to his country. Weeks rapidly Sped away in preparation for the coming campaign. Our vast stores were depleted, and the army re fitted anew. The men became restive in their desire to begin their promised and dearly cherished work of teaching South Carolina a lesson of war, and of testing the prowess of her vaunted chivalry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marching Through Georgia: Pen-Pictures of Every-Day Life in General Sherman's Army, From the Beginning of the Atlanta Campaign Until the Close of the War This volume does not pretend to be a tactical history of the campaigns of which it treats, and the grand movements of the Army are only mentioned in the most general way. Neither is it meant to extol the achievements of any particular individual or command. It is Intended to be as its title indicates, a series of Pen Pictures of the every-day Life of the Soldier during the campaigns beginning with the movement against Atlanta - how he lived, how he marched, and how he fought on skirmish line and in the line-of-battle. Its descriptions and incidents are drawn from the personal experiences of the author and those of his immediate com rades, and his recollection of events is freshened and confirmed by very complete diary entries, made at the time. They are from the standpoint of soldiers in the ranks, with whom the writer served as one of their number during a portion of the time covered by the narrative, and from whom he was never so far removed but that he was fully acquainted with their actions and sentiments.

Book Memoirs of General W T  Sherman

Download or read book Memoirs of General W T Sherman written by William T Sherman and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a 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. Written with the propulsive energy and intelligence that marked his campaigns, Memoirs of General W. T. 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 vivid, firsthand accounts of the war's crucial events-Shiloh, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, the Atlanta campaign, the marches through Georgia and the Carolinas.Born in Ohio in 1820, Sherman spent many of his prewar years moving between the old South and the new West. His recollections of shipwrecks, gold rushes, vigilance committees, and banking panics colorfully evoke the restless and often reckless spirit of a nation in transformation. A conservative terrified by the anarchy he saw in secession, Sherman resigned his position as superintendent of a Louisiana military academy in 1861 and went North to endure defeat at Bull Run and humiliation in the press for his pessimistic views of Union prospects in Kentucky. His fortunes changed at Shiloh, where he regained his confidence and won the admiration and friendship of Ulysses S. Grant. Sherman became Grant's most trusted subordinate, and over the next 18 months learned much from his commander about the irrelevancy of orthodox strategy to the realities of civil war in America.
