Memoirs of General W.T. Sherman (Library of America)

Hailed as prophet of modern war and condemned as a harbingerÂ of modern barbarism, William Tecumseh Sherman is theÂ most controversial general of the American Civil War. â€œWar isÂ cruelty, and you cannot refine it,â€ he wrote in fury to the ConfederateÂ mayor of Atlanta, and his memoir is filled with dozensÂ of such wartime exchanges. With the propulsive energy andÂ intelligence that marked his campaigns, Sherman describesÂ striking incidents and anecdotes and collects dozens of his incisiveÂ and often outspoken wartime orders and reports. ThisÂ complex self-portrait of an innovative and relentless AmericanÂ warrior provides firsthand accounts of the warâ€™s crucial eventsâ€”Shiloh, Vicksburg, Chattanooga, the Atlanta campaign, theÂ marches through Georgia and the Carolinas.
