When did the battle of Savannah end?

There was no battle in the end, because the small Confederate army under Hardee managed to escape across the river into South Carolina. The story goes that Sherman spared Savannah from destruction because he had once loved a girl from there. But either way, there would have been no benefit in wreaking further mayhem in Georgia by that time. He'd made his point on the suffering Georgians, and it was time to move into South Carolina (which had started the whole war) and put the boot into them.


What did sherman mean when he presented the city Savannah to loncoln?

This was a humorous reaction to the end of the March to the Sea, when Sherman was able to contact Grant and Lincoln for the first time in six weeks (because the wires had been cut), and he discoveed on December 24th that the Confederates had fled from Savannah, so there wouldn't be a destructive battle in that beautiful city. To celebrate the re-occupation of Savannah, he jokingly offered it to Lincoln as a Christmas present.
