Summary "Memoirs of General William T. Sherman — Volume 2" by William T. Sherman is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The volume delves into Sherman's perspective on significant military campaigns during the American Civil War, including his actions and decisions as a commanding general. The text particularly focuses on the preparations and operations of the Union forces as they advanced through key battles in the Atlanta campaign. At the start of the memoir, Sherman describes his assumption of command over the Military Division of the Mississippi in March 1864, detailing his interactions with fellow generals and the strategic organization of their forces. He elaborates on the logistical challenges his army faced, emphasizing the importance of supplies and the intricate maneuvering required to secure effective communication and transportation routes. In this opening portion, Sherman lays the groundwork for understanding the complex military landscape and the relationships between key figures in the operations against Confederate general Joseph E. Johnston, setting the stage for the unfolding campaign in Georgia. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
