General William Tecumseh Sherman's military tactics were known as "total war." This approach involved not only engaging enemy forces in battle but also targeting infrastructure, resources, and civilian property to diminish the South's will and capacity to continue fighting. Sherman's famous "March to the Sea" during the Civil War exemplified this strategy, as his troops destroyed railroads, supplies, and towns from Atlanta to Savannah, Georgia. This tactic aimed to break the spirit of the Confederacy and hasten the end of the war.
