Who Burnt Columbia?

Who Burnt Columbia? by Augustine T. Smythe presents selections from depositions in a post-Civil War lawsuit involving businessmen from the former Confederacy. The book focuses on sworn statements from Union Generals William Tecumseh Sherman and Oliver O. Howard regarding the controversial burning of Columbia, South Carolina, in February 1865. This event, part of Sherman's Carolinas Campaign, remains debated, with claims of accidental fires versus deliberate destruction, highlighting the complexities of wartime actions and their aftermath.
