Most famous for his scorched-earth tactics in the Civil War, General William Tecumseh Sherman brought that same military philosophy to the West, where he shaped a policy and strategy that would finally subjugate all the native peoples of the plains. Sherman was born in Ohio in 1820 and named after the Shawnee chief Tecumseh, who had tried unsuccessfully in the first decade of the nineteenth century to unite the tribes of the Ohio River Valley against American intrusions on their land. When his father died in 1829, Sherman was raised by a family friend.

After graduating sixth in his class from West Point in 1840, Sherman served in South Carolina and Georgia, but saw very little action in the Mexican-American war. He resigned from the Army in 1853 to pursue a career in banking, then a career as a lawyer, but with little success. The Civil War brought him back to active service in 1861, and brought him lasting fame (or infamy) for his \"march to the sea,\" on which he cut a swathe through the heart of the Confederacy, burning Atlanta and laying waste to vast stretches of farmland.

At the conclusion of the Civil War, Sherman was appointed commander of the Missouri district, which stretched from the Rocky Mountains to the Mississippi. Here he deployed troops to protect transcontinental railroad workers from Indians who feared that the railroad would mean further encroachment on their territory. He also established military outposts across the region, expanding the network of federal authority.

Artist

This painting is signed by T. Reynolds. This artist does all my Genre and Old World English portrait scenes. Reynolds is a master of Genre type portraits. His works are extremely fine detail and he is very picky about doing certain work I present to him. If its not something he would like to work on he simply will not take the work. He takes more time to do his work than any other artist I deal with but Im always very happy to see the end results. His work is very collectible and is growing in popularity every year. We consider him to be our company’s best portrait artist. Please view the close-up images to see the quality of this artist’s work for yourself.
