Synopsis

"Who Burned Columbia?" delves into the contentious historical debate surrounding the burning of Columbia, South Carolina, during the American Civil War. This book examines the circumstances and assigns responsibility for the devastating fires that consumed much of the city in February 1865. Was it the deliberate act of Union soldiers under General William Tecumseh Sherman, or were the fires started by fleeing Confederate forces and exacerbated by uncontrollable conditions?

James Ford Rhodes meticulously investigates the evidence, presenting a balanced account that considers various perspectives and testimonies. This book offers valuable insights into a pivotal moment in American history and sheds light on the complexities and controversies of wartime events. A crucial read for anyone interested in Civil War history and the enduring impact of historical narratives.
