Sherman offered the city to Pres. Abraham Lincoln as a Christmas present--sparing Savannah from destruction during Sherman's historic 1864 March to the Sea. Today Savannah is a thriving metropolitan city that hosts more than 6 million visitors annually and is home to the Savannah College of Art and Design, the nation's fastest growing art school.

This chronicle relates the experiences...
