Description
One of the lesser known Generals who was most responsible for winning The Civil War, Philip Henry Sheridan was fierce in pushing his troops to endure, and quick to improvise tactics when necessary. After the Civil War, he ruthlessley raided the Plains Indians by killing their warriors, burning their villages and destroying their primary source of food, the buffalo. As he forced the indians onto reservations, he often defended them against corrupt agents and contractors.
