Historians of every political stripe have for generations agreed, Robert Lee's Army of Northern Virginia was relatively well behaved during its Pennsylvania Campaign. They didn't burn homes, rape Pennsylvanians or otherwise do a lot of damage, outside of battle with the Union Army.
CWT poster and moderator @WJC seems to think Sherman was as well behaved in Georgia as was Lee in Pennsylvania. I think this is balderdash and welcome comments from others.
(There will certainly be evidence posted from anonymous and unverified sources with respect to Pennsylvania, but let's stick to the facts?)
