Item description from seller

First edition of this diary of an eminent American soldier and general; from the library of Philemon Tecumseh Sherman. Octavo, original green cloth, tissue-guarded frontispiece of Major General Ethan Allen Hitchcock. P. T. Sherman's bookplate to the front pastedown. In very good condition with light bumping to the crown of the spine, some rubbing to the front and rear panel, and an ownership signature to the front pastedown. General William Tecumseh Sherman’s son P. T. Sherman was a lawyer in New York, specializing in labor and insurance, and was elected a member of the New York Board of Alderman in the late 1880s. In the early 1900s, he was appointed the New York Commissioner of Labor. He transferred his library to his niece, Eleanor Sherman Fitch, the granddaughter of General Sherman through his eldest daughter, Maria “Minnie” Ewing Sherman Fitch, before he died. Until now, this book was held at the family estate in Washington County, Pennsylvania. Rare. Ethan Allen Hitchcock was a career United States Army officer and author who had War Department assignments in Washington, D.C., during the American Civil War where he served as Major-General. Hitchcock was a diarist, and his journal entries from this time have served as a crucial source of evidence for Howard Zinn's reinterpretation of United States history, 'Voices of A People's History of the United States.'.
