“The army is now ripe for mutiny, unless it can be fed. If you can’t feed us, you’d better surrender us, horrible as the idea is, than
suffer this noble army to disgrace themselves by desertion.—many soldiers.” Note to General John
Pemberton (CSA) from his soldiers at Vicksburg

James River. If he gets there, it will become a siege, and then it will be
a mere question of time.” Lee, June 1864 to Jubal Early

“We cannot change the hearts of these people of the South, but we
can make war so terrible and make them so sick of war that
generations will pass away before they again appeal to it.”

Sherman’s March to the Sea
![Page 34: General George Meade. General Robert E. Lee CSA](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56649f395503460f94c55926/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Sherman’s March to the SeaDecided to live off the land
1. Sherman can cut his supply line and move his army faster.
2. Taking supplies from civilians inflicts terror on the civilian population. Union Army burns what they cannot consume
![Page 35: General George Meade. General Robert E. Lee CSA](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081420/56649f395503460f94c55926/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Effect of Sherman’s Terror
• 1. Proves to Confederate citizens that their government is incapable of protecting them.
• 2. Increases the desertion rate of the Confederate Army as soldiers go home to protect their families.
