Sherman (Lancaster, Ohio, February 8, 1820-New York, February 14, 1891) was an American military man, educator, and writer. His celebrity comes from his participation with the rank of general in the United States Civil War (1861-1865), where he received both praise for his efficient use of military strategy, as well as strong questions for his relentless scorched earth policy that he applied in the so-called total war against the enemy.
