Best Answer

A campaign of punitive raids across Georgia that wrecked farms and railroads, destroying civilian morale, and helping to starve the Confederate troops in the field.

It shortened the war by months at almost nil casualties.

Some historians have called it the first example of Total War, and Sherman has been called the first modern General.
