Deutsch: Philip Henry Sheridan ( Spitzname „Little Phil“; * 6. März 1831 in Albany, New York; † 5. August 1888 in Nonquitt, Massachusetts) war ein General der Unionsarmee im Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg.
English: Philip Henry Sheridan ( March 6, 1831 – August 5, 1888) was a career U.S. Army officer and a Union general in the American Civil War. His career was noted for his rapid rise to major general and his close association with Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, who transferred Sheridan from command of an infantry division in the Western Theater to lead the Cavalry Corps of the Army of the Potomac in the East. In 1864, he defeated Confederate forces in the Shenandoah Valley and his destruction of the economic infrastructure of the Valley, called "The Burning" by residents, was one of the first uses of scorched earth tactics in the war. In 1865, his cavalry pursued Gen. Robert E. Lee and was instrumental in forcing his surrender at Appomattox.

Italiano: Philip Henry Sheridan ( 6 marzo 1831 – 5 agosto 1888) fu un ufficiale di carriera dell'esercito statunitense e un generale dell'Unione nella Guerra di secessione americana. La sua carriera è degna di essere ricordata per la sua rapida promozione al grado di Maggior Generale e per la sua stretta connessione con quella del tenente generale Ulysses S. Grant, che trasferì Sheridan dal comando di una divisione operativa nel teatro bellico occidentale per affidargli il comando dei corpi di cavalleria dell'Armata del Potomac nell'Est. Nel 1864 sconfisse le forze confederate nella Campagna della Valle dello Shenandoah del 1864, Per aver distrutto le infrastrutture economiche della Valle, fu chiamato "The Burning" (L'incendiario) dai suoi abitanti, distinguendosi per essere stato il primo a far uso della tattica della "terra bruciata" nel corso della guerra. Nel 1865, la sua cavalleria incalzò il gen. Robert E. Lee e fu determinante per indurlo alla resa ad Appomattox Court House.
