John Wilkes Booth ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Chapter 17 Study Guide 54th Massachusetts Regiment …. All black regiment, fought without pay, won fame for fighting at Fort Wagner >>> this victory increased the popularity and enlistment of African American soldiers in the Union army Turning points in the Civil War ….. Siege of Vicksburg (turning point in West) gave the Union total control of the Mississippi River and it also divided the Confederacy in two.. Battle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania (turning point in the North) After the Confederate defeat (Pickett’s Charge was a major Confederate blunder which led to the Union victory), Robert E. Lee realized he could not win in the North so he retreated ….the reason Lee was even in Gettysburg was because Confederate troops had heard of a shipment of shoes in the area (the South was searching for the shoes), Lee invaded the North, hoping to fuel Northern discontent with the war, a victory in the North might encourage European nations to recognize the Confederacy Appomattox Court House is the site where Robert e. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant Lee surrendered because Grant had captured Richmond, the capitol of the Confederacy William Tecumseh Sherman believed I total war>>> this means that he made war against everything that could support the enemy army……..Sherman’s conquest of Atlanta helped Lincoln win reelection in 1864. Lincoln believed he had the authority as president of the United States to free slaves in rebelling states (the South) as a military tactic>>> so he issued the Emancipation Proclamation (he needed to be in a position of strength before he freed any slaves this occurred after the Union victory at Antietam. Frederick Douglass urged Lincoln to free the slaves as a war tactic…….some abolitionists criticized Pres. Lincoln because he didn’t free all the slaves at that time. Clara Barton founded a relief agency that later became the Red Cross The Union government raised money to fight the war by passing an income tax (a tax which taxes people’s earnings) and issued greenbacks to finance the war The draft laws (conscription) existed both in the South and the North…. In both the North and the South the richer people could hire substitutes to fight in their stead Thirteenth Amendment ended slavery in the United States “Stonewall” Jackson was one of the Lee and the South’s best generals >>> when he died>>> this hurt the Confederacy. People who protested the war (Northerners who showed opposition to war) were arrested and put in jail with no trial under President Lincoln’s authority In Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address he stresses that we need to “bind up the nation’s wounds” so that the South can rejoin the United States without much trouble. Southern slaves could aide the Northern war effort by volunteering to fight in the union army, by refusing to go with the planters when they fled Union armies, or by sabotaging southern crops and farm equipment.
