SEE PHOTO(s) - COMPLETE ORIGINAL CONFEDERATE Civil War NEWSPAPER, the
Richmond Daily Dispatch
(VA) dated Nov 26, 1864. This original Confederate Civil War newspaper contains a prominent front page headline: "SHERMAN'S MARCH THROUGH GEORGIA" with a long detailed (2/3 column of text) with the famous (or infamous if you are a Georgian)
MARCH of SHERMAN'S MARCH THROUGH GEORGIA in 1864
.
This is the BEST Confederate display headline newspaper I have ever seen on Sherman's March through Georgia
Sherman's March to the Sea (also known as the Savannah Campaign or simply Sherman's March) was a military campaign of the American Civil War conducted through Georgia from November 15 until December 21, 1864, by Maj. Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman of the Union Army. The campaign began with Sherman's troops leaving the captured city of Atlanta on November 15 and ended with the capture of the port of Savannah on December 21. His forces followed a "scorched earth" policy, destroying military targets as well as industry, infrastructure, and civilian property, disrupting the Confederacy's economy and transportation networks. The operation broke the back of the Confederacy and helped lead to its eventual surrender. Sherman's decision to operate deep within enemy territory and without supply lines is considered to be one of the major campaigns of the war, and is considered by some historians to be an early example of modern total war.
This Confederate Civil War newspaper is complete as a single sheet issue. The single sheet newspaper format was used by many Southern newspapers due to the scarcity of paper in the South during the Civil War. This lack of paper was a result of the South being cut off from their normal paper supplies, previously obtained from the Northern paper mills.
Most Confederate Civil War newspapers lack bold single column headlines as were common in Northern newspapers; however, the defiant prose found in Southern newspapers more than makes up for the lack of headlines ! Confederate Civil War newspapers are much scarcer, and much more in demand with collectors than Northern newspapers.
