Description
Burning valleys. Empty counties. Armies that didn’t just fight the war… they scorched everything in their path. In this episode, we break down three of the most controversial Union actions of the Civil War. Sheridan’s burning of the Shenandoah Valley, Sherman’s March to the Sea, and General Order No. 11 in Missouri. Brutal campaigns, civilian suffering, and tactics that still spark debate today.
