Award-winning Civil War historian Noah Andre Trudeau has written a gripping, definitive account that will stand as the last word on General William Tecumseh Sherman''s epic march--a targeted strategy aimed to break not only the Confederate army but an entire society as well. Sherman''s swath of destruction spanned more than sixty miles in width and virtually cut Georgia in two. He led more than 60,000 Union troops to blaze a path from Atlanta to Savannah, ordering his men to burn crops, kill livestock, and lay waste to everything that fed the Rebel war machine.
Told through the intimate and engrossing writings of Sherman''s soldiers and the civilians who suffered in their wake, Southern Storm paints a vibrant picture of an event that would forever change America''s course.
