would highly, highly recommend the collected correspondence of william t sherman, one of the most important edited volumes in many decades. brooks simpson, who is on the faculty here, is one of the coeditors of that. throughout the campaign, sherman largely avoided launching frontal attacks against his entrenched opponents. instead, what he repeatedly did was utilize and maneuver flanking movements to rest confederates from strong defensive positions. i think sherman's greatness also derives from his mastery of logistics. keeping an enormous field army supply day after day, very deep in enemy territory. sherman's army numbered over 100,000 men. it had 28,000 horses, 33,000 mules. imagine trying to supply an army of that size day after day after day. the only way to do it, of course, was via railroads. sherman, in the months leading up to the campaign which began in may, 1860 four, had hundreds and hundreds of trains moving down a rail system through kentucky and tennessee, stockpiling supplies in nashville and chattanooga. in chattanooga alone, between the months of march and may 1864 there were 165 rail cars unloading on a dail
