Sherman replaced General Ulysses Grant as commander of the Military Division of the Mississippi, which included the Departments of the Ohio, Cumberland, Tennessee, and Arkansas. Thereafter, Sherman led the campaigns to Atlanta and Savannah, and, by the end of the war, northward through South and North Carolina. Sherman’s memoirs were published originally in two volumes in 1875. This edition combines the two volumes into one.
