Some of you say he was a good General. Well, if Sherman was great then by your on words William Quantrill and Bill Anderson must also be held in high regard.
Sounds like double standards don't it? Ya, the union won so they can write history however they want but Quantrill and Anderson didn't do anything revered General William Tecumseh Sherman and his cronies hadn't also done. The difference is one side won and the other didn't. Sherman=hero, Quantrill Anderson=villain
