Personal Recollections of Sherman's Campaigns in Georgia and the Carolinas / Captain George W. Pepper

“War with him is a means — not an end; intense necessity — not a willing sacrifice. He is a successful General, yet he hates the battle-field; he is the very incarnation of the spirit of peace; and there is a moral grandeur in him that commands our unbounded admiration.” - Captain George W. Pepper.

Presented as it was originally published in 1866, Pepper’s memoirs are much more than a series of battle descriptions.

Starting at Kentucky and marching through the states with Sherman’s troops, Pepper portrays in extensive detail the regions, the buildings, and the people, including anecdotes of Sherman.

Locale, military tactics and colourful characterizations give this recounting a fascinating and novel point of view.

Pepper details each battle and reveals the aftermath on many levels.

A must-read for anyone interested in military history and the American Civil War.
