Bound in the rear is the publisher's description of the book with the prices for the two available bindings. This is followed by several pages of lined paper for taking down customer orders. None of them in this rare example have been used. William Tecumseh Sherman was a career military man, graduate of West Point who would rise to the rank of Commanding General of the United States Army and acting Secretary of War. He is best known for his still-controversial "scorched-earth" policies fighting against the Confederacy in the Civil War. He has been called (by B.H. Liddell Hart), "the first modern general". 'Sherman remained a soldier to the end, though his view of warfare was succinctly put in his oft-quoted assertion that "war is hell." When Grant became a full general in 1866, Sherman moved up to the rank of lieutenant general, and when Grant became president in 1869, he made Sherman commanding general of the army, a post he held until 1884. Unlike Grant, Sherman declined all opportunities to run for political office, saying he would not run if nominated and would not serve if elected. Sherman was one of the ablest Union generals in the Civil War died in New York City in 1891. He saw that conflict in its broadest strategic terms, and his March to the Sea is generally regarded as the first example of the use of total war in the modern era.' Charlton Tebeau.
