| Summary | "Personal Memoirs of P. H. Sheridan, Volume 1, Part 3" by Philip Henry Sheridan is a historical account that captures the experiences of one of the prominent Union generals during the American Civil War. Written in the late 19th century, it provides a first-hand perspective on key military operations and battles, particularly focusing on the crucial events in the Chattanooga and Knoxville campaigns. The memoir reflects Sheridan's strategic military decisions, interactions with fellow generals, and the overarching challenges faced during these pivotal moments in the war. The opening portion of the memoir recounts Sheridan's leadership in the defense and reorganization of Union forces at Chattanooga following the expensive struggle at Chickamauga. It details the tactical maneuvers against Confederate forces, the difficulties in securing supplies, and the morale of the troops amidst constant threats from enemy artillery. Throughout this narrative, Sheridan highlights his role in the eventual successes against entrenched rebel positions, all while capturing the spirit and struggles of soldiers under siege. His reflections on command decisions, personal experiences during battles such as Missionary Ridge, and the complexities of army logistics paint a vivid picture of a time marked by both bravery and hardship.
