My family is from the South. I was born in Blacksburg. My father went to VPI, my mother South Carlina, VPI and Auburn. When we moved to Ohio there were still a few comments on the War of Northern Agression and spitting on the streets of Lancaster because of Sherman. 150 years later and it's not a dead issue down there. According to Southern historians Sherman was a terrorist who target civilian targets. In every historical account he waged total war aimed at demoralising the Confederacy. I have some perspective on the situation I wanted to share in a constructive way.
