37 Weeks

Week 30 (November 10th - November 16th)

Episode 30 | 1m 45s

Sherman undertakes the most infamous stage of his war in Georgia: the March to the Sea.

In mid-November, Sherman writes Ulysses S. Grant of his strategy for the Savannah Campaign…the March to the Sea. His plan is unheard of: abandon supply lines and non-essentials and survive off the land. Above all, Sherman vows to show inhabitants of the South that war and personal ruin are synonymous. He’ll see to it that his “scorched earth” policy has both economic and psychological impact.
