Big Round Gettysburg

Little Round Gettysburg

General Ulysses S. Grant

“The army is now ripe for mutiny, unless it can be fed. If you can’t feed us, you’d better surrender us, horrible as the idea is, than suffer this noble army to disgrace themselves by desertion.—many soldiers.” Note to General John Pemberton (CSA) from his soldiers at Vicksburg

“We must destroy this army of Grant’s before he gets to the James River. If he gets there, it will become a siege, and then it will be a mere question of time.” Lee, June 1864 to Jubal Early

General William Tecumseh Sherman

John Bell Hood

“Atlanta is ours and fairly won” Sherman

“I will make Georgia howl.” Sherman

“We cannot change the hearts of these people of the South, but we can make war so terrible and make them so sick of war that generations will pass away before they again appeal to it.” Sherman

Sherman’s March to the Sea

Decided to live off the land 1. Sherman can cut his supply line and move his army faster. 2. Taking supplies from civilians inflicts terror on the civilian population. Union Army burns what they cannot consume

Effect of Sherman’s Terror 1. Proves to Confederate citizens that their government is incapable of protecting them. 2. Increases the desertion rate of the Confederate Army as soldiers go home to protect their families.
