Sherman's Special Field Order 15, issued in January 1865, aimed to redistribute land to formerly enslaved families in the South. It allocated about 400,000 acres of land along the coastline of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, granting each family 40 acres and the possibility of obtaining a mule. This order sought to provide a form of economic independence for freed slaves as a means of integrating them into society after the Civil War. However, the order was later rescinded, and the promised land redistribution largely did not materialize.

General Sherman's order of 40 acres stemmed from the desire to provide land to formerly enslaved individuals following the Civil War. In January 1865, during his march through the South, Sherman met with Black leaders and recognized the need for economic independence for freed slaves. This culminated in Special Field Order No. 15, which allocated confiscated land for settlement. The intent was to empower freedmen by giving them a means to sustain themselves and their families.

General Sherman's order of "40 acres and a mule" arose during the Civil War as part of efforts to address the needs of freed slaves. In January 1865, Sherman issued Special Field Orders No. 15 after his March to the Sea, which aimed to redistribute land along the South Carolina and Georgia coasts to formerly enslaved families. The initiative was intended to provide economic independence and support to those who had been freed from slavery. However, the order was later revoked by President Andrew Johnson, and most of the land was returned to its original owners.
