About This Book

"Francis Trowbridge Sherman of Chicago recorded his Civil War experiences in both diaries and letters to his family. Published here for the first time, his writings are notable not only for their vivid descriptions of his wartime service but also for their insights into the volatile politics of the era.".

"Colonel Sherman's diaries and letters have been carefully edited and annotated by C. Knight Aldrich, his great-grandson, who places them in historical perspective. A psychiatrist by training, Dr. Aldrich also offers some speculation about the inner conflicts that may have fueled Sherman's ambitions and political beliefs."--BOOK JACKET.
