In 1864, Union general William Tecumseh Sherman marched his sixty thousand troops through Georgia to the sea, and then up into the Carolinas. The army fought off Confederate forces, demolished cities, lived off the land and pillaged the Southern plantations, accumulating a borne-along population of freed blacks and white refugees until all that remained was the dangerous transient life of the dispossessed and the triumphant. In Doctorow’s hands the great march becomes a floating world and a nomadic consciousness. Described by Time as..."Spellbinding ...a ferocious re-imagining of the past that returns it to us as something powerful and strange.”
