Little Phil: The Story of General Philip Henry Sheridan - Softcover
This is the story of a professional military officer.
In "Little Phil" the author shows not only the history, but also the little things in the life of General Philip Henry Sheridan that have been ignored by other writings. How exciting it is to run across rare little tidbits, such as reading an old newspaper only to find out that the General was so appreciated that a great university awarded him an honorary degree – or that he was Grand Marshall of the parade following the dedication of the Washington Monument.
Those expecting to read an exhaustive study of the movements of armies as they battled each other during the Civil War in this country will have to read elsewhere. The author makes no pretense of presenting a scholarly recitation of the historic military maneuvers and tactics that surrounded the man's career. His purpose is to present the story of the man, using his own words and the words of his contemporaries so that we might see what he saw, hear what he heard, and feel what he felt.
