Sherman's March by Burke Davis
A vivid, sweeping narrative of General William T. Sherman’s 1864–65 campaign from Atlanta to Savannah and through the Carolinas, blending operational detail, soldier and civilian anecdotes, and analysis of the strategy of total war. The book traces the logistics, maneuvers, and scorched-earth tactics that crippled Confederate infrastructure, examines the moral and political controversies his methods provoked, and assesses their role in hastening Southern collapse. Drawing on contemporary reports and eyewitness accounts, it portrays both the military efficacy and human cost of the march, exploring how destruction of property, disruption of supply lines, and psychological warfare reshaped the war’s final phase and left a lasting imprint on the postwar South.
