Sherman's tactics may have been far humane by forcing an end to the war than gentler means allowing the war to drag on.
Before you get too proud of the chivary, there were many accounts of less than good behavior by some fighting for the South. War is indeed hell regardless of the side.

For those of us with the skills and know how to accurately interpret facial expressions, persona and the stories that photographs tell, the photographs of Sherman TELL a story indeed...........
