A New York Times best-selling author's account of the devastating military campaign that broke the Confederacy's back in the last months of the Civil War.

In November 1864, just days after the reelection of President Abraham Lincoln, General William T. Sherman vowed to "make Georgia howl." The hero of Shiloh and his 65,000 Federal troops destroyed the great city of Atlanta, captured Savannah, and cut a wide swath of destruction through Georgia and the Carolinas on their way to Virginia. A scorched-earth campaign that continues to haunt the Southern imagination, Sherman's "March to the Sea" and ensuing drive north was a crucial turning point in the War between the States.

Weaving together hundreds of eyewitness accounts, best-selling author Burke Davis tells the story of this infamous episode from the perspective of the Union soldiers and the Confederate men and women who stood in their path. Eloquent, heartrending, and vastly informative, Sherman's March brilliantly examines one of the most polarizing figures in American military history and offers priceless insights into the enduring legacy of the Civil War.

War, as it should be done. War, as it must be done. General Sherman is my favorite Civil War General. although General Sherman fought a harsh campaign he ended it with liberal surrender terms. An honor returned by his defeated foe at Sherman’s funeral. A good book about a great man.

Do I need to come back down there again?

The information about Sherman arguing terms of surrender with Johnston was great as well as the drama between Sherman and Stanton. There was a part where the author says that Sherman's tactics were incorporated into 20th century warfare and I really wish there had been more explanation and interpretation of that statement. Parts of it were heavily anecdotal but toward the end it became more narrative driven

Great Info

A good, engaging history of an extraordinary pivotal series of events which had a profound effect upon the Civil War, and its outcome. Well narrated.

A great read of history!

Loved the story. I have lived in NC for 35 years so this history was very relevant. I wished for a narrator, however, that used punctuation in his narration. His voice was not particularly pleasant. The story was excellent.

The narrator’s fast speaking speed was slightly distracting

Wow! Killing, burning, stealing, raping and destroying lives of innocent Southerners who had no vote or choice in the War of Northern Aggression. Sherman was the perfect pawn for Dishonest Abe. Read this book and be enlightened on the general all Yankees admired.

Great story of Heartless Yankee

Sherman’s March

Burke Davis does an excellent job recounting General Sherman’s exploits on the March to the Sea. He provides interesting anecdotes and quotes which reveal Sherman’s brilliance, his ability to cut through chaff…and his weaknesses.

I think that is my favorite part of the book. You see that someone of remarkable intellect and plain spoken wisdom can also miss obvious traps. We should be careful in our judgments.

Well worth your time.

Well worth your time…much to learn

If you love history and the American civil war. This account of Sherman's March through the South was most enjoyable and I think accurate. He was a Great General and an interesting human being. This book reflects his effectiveness and I enjoyed it.

Gives a realistic account of Sherman's March to the Sea and through the Southern states.

I enjoyed listening to book. I was especially interested in hearing chapter 22 on the Battle of Bentonville, NC. My 4th grandfather participated in Sherman’s march to the sea and fought at Bentonville. I thoroughly enjoyed re-reading my grandfather’s diary entry of the battle after hearing the audible narrative. Today, I feel I have a better understanding and appreciation of what he wrote and experienced.

Interesting Read!

Good writing, and a great storyline on a grand man who helped to get us through the Civil War.

The author seems to both idolize Sherman and hate the union. Weird combination. Seems to have found every angry story about the march he could and did not critically examine any of them. If you hate the Yankees, Davis will believe every word you say.

Hilarious
