General Sherman in the Field
E V Smalley portrays Sherman’s campaign habits. He rose early and slept little, rode to exposed front lines, and rarely used tents during Atlanta operations. His headquarters were simple, a candle box and sapling shelter, with a single sentry and a praise for steadiness and endurance. He granted passes to Confederate officers’ families but warned against plans to reach Columbia, claiming he would arrive there with his army soon.
