Item description from seller

First edition of the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer's work on Civil War Union Army General William Tecumseh Sherman; from W. T. Sherman's library. Octavo, original publisher's cloth with gilt titles to the spine and front panel, top edge gilt, tissue-guarded engraved frontispiece. Philemon Tecumseh Sherman's bookplate adhered to the front pastedown. In very good condition. This book was inherited by General Sherman's son P. T. Sherman, who transferred the library to his niece, Eleanor Sherman Fitch, before he died. Eleanor was the granddaughter of General Sherman through his eldest daughter, Maria "Minnie" Ewing Sherman Fitch. Until now, the book was held at the family estate in Washington County, Pennsylvania. William Tecumseh Sherman served as a general in the Union Army during the American Civil War (1861—1865), achieving recognition for his command of military strategy as well as criticism for the harshness of the scorched earth policies that he implemented against the Confederate States. In 1864, Sherman succeeded Grant as the Union commander in the Western Theater. He led the capture of the strategic city of Atlanta, a military success that contributed to the re-election of President Abraham Lincoln. Sherman accepted the surrender of all the Confederate armies in the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida in April 1865 and succeeded Ulysses S. Grant as Commanding General of the Army when Grant was elected President.
