Vol. 2 frontispiece is a picture of P. H. Sheridan, Lieutenant General. Vol. 1 has a map of the Shenandoah Valley.Vol. 2 has a map of the Battlefield of Winchester, 19th Sept. 1864. Sheridan's close association with General Grant benefited his career. It was Grant in fact, who transferred Sheridan from command of an infantry division in the Western Theater to lead the Cavalry Corps of the Army of the Potomac. In 1864, he defeated Confederate forces in the Shenandoah Valley. That very har campaign is noted for the destruction of the economic infrastructure of the Valley and was one of the first uses of scorched earth tactics in the war.. First Edition. Very Good Plus. 2 Volumes.
