Battle of Shiloh

Battle of Shiloh: April 6-8, 1862 Significance? -Could have been huge CSA victory (Grant drunk?) -Secures TN for Union, begins control of West

Battle Map - Lee’s plan to invade the North was discovered by a soldier on battlefield (“Special Order 191”) - Union General George McClellan met the Confederacy at Sharpsburg, MD (Antietam Creek) - Single bloodiest day in American History - Lee realizes the South needs an ally – he believes a major victory in the north (take Harrisburg, PA) will attract an ally.

After the Battle of Antietam…

What did the Proclamation really accomplish? Lee’s force is weak – follow them and end the war! NO - - they might have more numbers than we think! You have a case of the “slows” – you’re fired! After the Battle of Antietam, McClellan lets Lee’s tattered force escape into Virginia – he is dismissed. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation

The Proclamation only frees slaves living in Confederate states. Turns the focus of the war: it was a war over “states’ rights”, now a war over slavery Europe, particularly England and France, refused to help the Confederacy. How could they back a war to promote slavery when they had already outlawed it? Slaves start rebelling in the South – creates further tension
