Strategies for Victory
The Union planned an aggressive campaign; attack and move in -- OFFENSIVE
The South planned to hold tight until the North lost the will to fight:
protect what you already have -- DEFENSIVE
Union 4-Part Plans
1. Blockade Southern ports; cut off the South’s supply of manufactured goods
from Europe
2. In the East, seize Richmond, Virginia the Confederate capital;
quickly capture the Confederate government
3. In the West, seize control of the Mississippi River;
prevent the South from using the river to supply its troops
4. This maneuver would also separate Arkansas, Texas, and Louisiana
from the rest of the Confederacy
Confederate 4-Part Plans
1. Fight a strictly defensive war until the Northerners tired of fighting
2. When the war became unpopular in the North, Lincoln would stop the
fighting and recognize the South’s independence
3. The Confederacy counted on aid from Europe
4. Cotton was grown in the South; European textile mills needed their cotton
Europe, in need of this Southern cotton, would recognize the Confederacy as
an independent nation
Thus, continue to buy the South’s primary resource -- COTTON
Battle of Bull Run
July 21, 1861, Union troops left the North’s capitol, Washington, D.C.
They headed toward South’s capitol - Richmond, Virginia, 100 miles away
Washingtonians, civilians from Washington, D.C., rode along with the
troops to watch the battle
The two armies met up near a small stream in Virginia know as Bull Run

Naval Action
Union ships blockaded Southern ports delivery rate to 1 out of 10 ships;
cutting supplies by 90%
The Confederates took an abandoned Union warship, covered it with iron
plates and named it the CSS Virginia
Union cannonballs bounced harmlessly off the Virginia’s metal skin
The Union countered with its own ironclad ship the USS Monitor

Union Victories in the West -- Lincoln’s New Hero – US Grant
Union strategy for the West was to capture and control the Mississippi River
General Ulysses S Grant was in charge for the Union
February 1862, Grant attacked and captured Forts Henry and Donelson in
Tennessee
These Confederate forts guarded important tributaries of the Mississippi River
Grant showed his toughness and determination by winning a 3rd battle, the
Battle of Shiloh; one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War
The Union Navy captured New Orleans and Memphis, Tennessee
By capturing these two ‘port’ cities, the Union controlled both end of the
Mississippi River; Ole Man River became a Yankee
South could no longer use the river as a supply line
