"Before I started to read this book I saw that the author was a native Georgian and I questioned his objectivity. My fears were unfounded! David S. Evans writes clear prose with an even-handedness that is the mark of a top-notch historian. He documents his research with extensive footnotes and debunks long-standing myths concerning Sherman's siege on Atlanta. Evans reveals the intimate perspectives of the leaders and troopers on both sides as well as the many civilians who also suffered the union cavalry raids to cut the railroads supplying the Confederates defending Atlanta. The maps throughout the book were especially helpful in following the manuvers and skirmishes. I am amazed at the sacrifices made by these troopers (and their mounts) and add affirmation to General Tecumseh Sherman's famous words: "War is Hell.""
