Sheridan","description":"His name graces forts, military vehicles, ships, and mountains. As a Union general during the Civil War, he was among the first soldiers to use \"scorched earth\" tactics, and was instrumental in forcing the surrender of Confederate leadership. As a civilian, he helped created and protect Yellowstone National Park. Career U.S. army officer PHILIP HENRY SHERIDAN (1831-1888) is an American icon, and this is the story of his life, in his own words. First published in 1888, this engrossing, highly readable biography covers Sheridan's early life-his education, his appointment to West Point, and first military postings in Texas in the 1850s-as well his later years, including his tour of Europe. But the bulk of the book is made up with his detailed recollections of the many campaigns during the Civil War, which will thrill military buffs with their you-are-there immediacy and insight. Readers of military nonfiction and students of American history will find this an enlightening work of autobiography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Henry Sheridan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1602069743\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781602069749\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cosimo Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 1.25d","brand":"Philip Henry Sheridan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938625061119,"sku":"9781602069749","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_13ed72dd-9ff1-4f2e-94ed-edc31ecccd02.jpg?v=1681436789","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-memoirs-of-general-p-philip-henry-sheridan-9781602069749","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
