Yes, you did say that. Better not to make broad comments you cannot back up. You are one of the many from the South who has tried to blame Lincoln for Sherman’s march. The strategy of shutting down commerce and support for the rebel cause was exactly what was needed to bring the Confederate army to its knees. It was the key to bringing the war to an end. As Sherman said, all war is hell. It is not a gentlemanly endeavor as the Confederate leadership believed. Also, don’t underestimate your opponent. The South learned that lesson and so did the Japanese years later. Thanks for playing the game.
“You are one of the many from the South who has tried to blame Lincoln for Sherman’s march.”
Well, Lincoln should be blamed, is to blame, as are all other President’s held accountable for what their generals do, especially since Lincoln congratulated Sherman for his
“great success in his march from Atlanta to the Atlantic” and he definitely knew about it beforehand.
Anyway, I am tired of this.
