Synopsis:

First published in 1875, General William T. Sherman’s memoir was one of the first from the Civil War, and was offered to the public because, as Sherman wrote in his dedication, “no satisfactory history” of the war was yet available.

Although the Memoirs have been revised and corrected many times over the years, Sherman, famously, never changed the original text of his recollections. He was not an historian, he said, and invited “any witness who may disagree with me should publish his own version of [the] facts…”
