Grant had ordered Sherman to destroy the Army of Tennessee.
Sherman had not managed to achieve this, mainly because of his long and vulnerable supply-line.
So he decided to ignore the supply-line and conduct a campaign of punitive raids across Georgia, living off the land as he went.
It was highly successful - destroying the Southern economy and civilian morale, and bringing the Confederate troops closer to starvation.
