The White Tecumseh: A Biography of General William T. Sherman Stanley P. Hirshson Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated May-97 0471175781 / 9780471175780 Hardcover Fine - As New **** FIRST EDITION **** Out - of - Print and rare to find in brand new condition - Dust jacket preserved and protected with Brodart, non-adhesive clear jacket coverWilliam T. Sherman was Ulysses S. Grant's staunchest ally in the Union Army; in 1862 he even dissuaded his friend from resigning. This opinionated work on the leader of the merciless March to the Sea takes issue with many previous biographies. According to Stanley Hirshon, Sherman was not a racist (at least, not by 19th-century standards), not a philanderer (though he liked to flirt), and not a bad general (though he lost a lot of battles). The author makes a persuasive case for these contentions in his strongly argued text. Price:
