"Marching Through Georgia" (sometimes spelled as
"Marching Thru' Georgia" or "Marching Thro Georgia") is
a marching song written by Henry Clay Work at the end
of the American Civil War in 1865. The title and lyrics
of the song refer to U.S. Army major general William T.
Sherman's "March to the Sea" to capture the Confederate
city of Savannah, Georgia in late 1864.
