“Union and Confederate Resources” shows that the total population and total number of miles of
railroad track in the Union were
that of the total population and total number of miles of railroad track in the Confederacy. One
critical component of the population advantage was that the Union possessed some
troops. Slaveholding border states such as Maryland, Missouri, and
sided with the Union. These border states were strategic resources along important railroad routes
west. Many Northerners believed they would attain a quick victory over the Confederate forces
because of the sheer numeric advantages the Union possessed.
Early victories for the Confederate army in the Civil War did not reflect the imbalance between the
troop strength of the Union and the Confederate forces. The Union had 2.1 million troops in total,
including in uniform. The ratio of total population to the number of soldiers was, but the North had
a much larger total population.
12.2 The Battlefront,1861-1862
Which geographic region served as the capital of the Confederate States of America?
Washington D.C.

capture. I hear that you have a plan to help us accomplish this.
MCDOWELL: The Confederates are trying to defend a critical rail junction at. I’m planning an
offensive campaign to capture this junction, drive them deeper into Virginia, and send them away
from Washington.
PRESIDENT LINCOLN: Presumably, this area will be well defended. Do you think we are strong
enough to mount an offensive?
MCDOWELL: We are in a good position. We have roughly more troops in the area than they do.

Our Union Boys Battle for the Mississippi River
The mighty Mississippi has long been thought to be one of the key waterways, not just of the
country, but of this war. The battle to control it has been waged on many fronts but really picked
up steam this past April when Captain Farragut’s fleet of ships took control of and put the
Confederate traitors on the run. As Farragut made his way upriver, winning battle after glorious
battle, Captain Charles Davis came down from the north.
In spite of this, full control of the river still eludes us. A well-placed source tells me that these two
men are planning on next month at Vicksburg. If successful, such a move could bring about a
hasty end to the war. After all, having full control of the Mississippi would. One can only hope and
pray that these men are up to the task.
After the military failure at Bull Run in 1861, Lincoln placed George B. McClellan in charge of the

Secretary of War in 1862. You are meeting with President Lincoln to discuss the failure of
McClellan’s Peninsula Campaign.
Based on the narrated map, select the correct response from each dropdown menu to complete
the dialogue.
STANTON: Well, it looks like General McClellan was unable to and is retreating from Confederate
forces. For a while there, it looked like it might work.
PRESIDENT LINCOLN: Everything seemed to change once the rebels installed as the commander
of their Virginia forces. Tell me, what do you think we did right and did wrong?
STANTON: It was a good tactical plan. McClellan had his army stationed in a prime spot, and
using the as a supply route was inspired thinking. As for mistakes, it might have been the wrong
decision to hold back so many troops and keep them stationed in Washington, D.C. I know that
the rebels had amassed forces, but a larger force might have allowed McClellan to succeed.

shortages of essential goods throughout the Confederacy. For example, instead of growing food,
many farmers now grow, hoping for profit. However, they can’t make much profit when the
government forces them to sell it for.
Such resentments are building all across the Confederacy. The unrest because of food shortages in
Richmond exists alongside a broader resentment against. The poor don’t like how the rich avoid
taxes and. Hopefully this malaise will not spread to the army and our boys can hold out until the
Yanks give up.
Supplies Low, but Spirits High
As the Union army is preparing to engage the rebel forces, it behooves us to examine its
preparedness. Most of the troops are in the, which might make things difficult at the outset.

May 5, 1863
Dear Diary,
Today my troops repelled the Union’s advances on yet again, but oh, what a price we paid. I
believe we lost the same number of men as at on September 17, 1862—the single bloodiest day of
the war. The last few days have, indeed, been trying, but I am confident that the South will
emerge victorious in this terrible struggle. I am heartened by the efforts of General and his troops,
who successfully defeated Union forces on the western flank of General Hooker’s dual-flanked
attack near. I am exhausted; I must get some rest before another day dawns.
Imagine that you’re a Union soldier incarcerated at Libby Prison in Richmond, Virginia. For several
days, you’ve heard only rumors of the outcome of the Battle of Gettysburg, which took place July
1–3, 1863, in southern Pennsylvania. Then, on July 8, you and your fellow prisoners finally receive
an accurate account from a reliable informant.
Based on the narrated battle map, select the correct response from each dropdown menu to

YOU: Although I am sorry you ended up in here, friend, might I ask if you bring news of the Battle
of Gettysburg? We have received reports from only Southern sources and cannot be sure they are
accurate.
INFORMANT: I can tell you everything about it because I was there, but I will spare you the
suspense and tell you that army emerged victorious. Although General Lee’s troops enjoyed an
early advantage, General Meade’s forces routed Lee’s men after securing the coveted high ground
on July 1.
YOU: But the battle lasted three days, did it not?
INFORMANT: Indeed, it did, and what a bloody three days! More than 51, 000 men perished.
During two more days of ill-fated attempts to advance on the ridges and hills held by Meade’s
men, the lost about a third of their entire force! I think it is fair to say that General ta ctics failed
miserably.
Imagine it is July 5, 1863, and you’re standing among a large crowd in the town square of

Citizens of Vicksburg, it is my sad duty to inform you that our city fell into the hands of the Union
army yesterday. Though our soldiers fought bravely to thwart them, it seems that Generals Grant
and Sherman finally succeeded in their efforts by invading from the. They accomplished their
victory in this manner: General Grant moved his men by, while General Sherman created a
diversion to allow Grant’s men to get within striking distance of Vicksburg. Nearly 8,000
Confederate soldiers gave their lives in four battles before our city finally surrendered to Grant.
Now that Vicksburg has fallen, the Union has succeeded in dividing the Confederacy by cutting off
access to.

PRESIDENT LINCOLN: General, thank you very much for stopping by to see me. Before I get to
the matter at hand, let me tell you again how pleased I am with the outcome of your recent
campaigns. Why, even the Confederates were impressed with your army’s tough fighting at
Missionary Ridge, which led to the fall of last November!
GENERAL GRANT: Thank you, Mr. President. I, too, am pleased with the way things are going,
but I fear there is still much fighting to be done. Would you like a cigar?
PRESIDENT LINCOLN: No, thank you. General, I summoned you here today to let you know that
I am putting you in charge of all the Northern forces. As you know, I face a tough bid for
reelection, and I should be better equipped to win if I. With you in charge of the whole Union
army, we’ll be able to attack the South on every front simultaneously.
GENERAL GRANT: I accept your charge, Mr. President, and agree with your thought process. I
have it on good authority that the Confederacy hopes to make you look bad in the eyes of
Northerners by inflicting heavy damages on the Union army. They believe this tactic will result in
Northern voters. I will not, however, let that happen on my watch.
Imagine that you are a telegraph operator for the Union army, and General William T. Sherman

December 21, 1864
Dear President Lincoln,
I beg to present to you, as a Christmas gift, the city of. We continue to make excellent progress
here in Georgia. I am still thrilled that we took Atlanta back in September, though perhaps not as
thrilled as you are given that our successful efforts here in Georgia resulted in. I will keep you
abreast of our progress as I continue this campaign of total war, but barring any unforeseen
circumstances, I expect to march my troops into in early February.
Sincerely,
General Sherman
As the Civil War drew to a close, the battles remained brutal as Generals Grant and Lee skirmished
throughout Virginia. On April 9, 1865, however, both men convened at the Appomattox
Courthouse to bring an end to the war between North and South. Imagine that you’ve found a
tattered newspaper in an attic in New York dated April 10, 1865, that describes the last year of the
war and its outcome. Due to the age and condition of the newspaper, however, some of the wo rds
are difficult to read.

perhaps none more grizzly than the Battle of, where trapped soldiers burned to death in great
numbers. But after months of skirmishes with General Lee’s army all over the state of Virginia,
Union forces finally overtook just one week ago. Lee retreated with his armies, but Grant’s men
foiled their plan to rearm and ultimately elicited Lee’s surrender. Though we are overjoyed to
announce an end to this long and bloody conflict, the Union forces must remain vigilant as outlying
Southern armies remain in the field and Confederate Jefferson Davis is still at large.
As the Civil War dragged on, increasingly bloody battles took place along the border states in the
West and across the deep South. Though Confederate forces scored a few victories across
scattered battlefields, the Union army eventually wore down its opponents. The South surrendered
in early April 1865.

because of the exemptions for men with at least. And we have trouble even mobilizing the troops
we have already!
YOU: Why is that?
DAVIS: Well, to really wage this war to our fullest capacity, we would need to authority, but the
states won’t accept that. The reason we are fighting this war is to preserve. Some say I should
exert more authority to win the war, but then others call me a! I don’t know what to do.

Liberty University HIUS 221 Module Week 8 Mindtap Activities complete solutions correct answers key https://www.coursemerit.com/solution-details/24014/HIUS-221-Module-Week-8-Mindtap-Activities-complete-solutions-correct-answers-key 12.1 PicturingHistory Use the dropdown menus to complete the paragraph. “Union and Confederate Resources” shows that the total population and total number of miles of railroad track in the Union were that of the total population and total number of miles of railroad track in the Confederacy. One critical component of the population advantage was that the Union possessed some troops. Slaveholding border states such as Maryland, Missouri, and sided with the Union. These border states were strategic resources along important railroad routes west. Many Northerners believed they would attain a quick victory over the Confederate forces because of the sheer numeric advantages the Union possessed. Early victories for the Confederate army in the Civil War did not reflect the imbalance between the troop strength of the Union and the Confederate forces. The Union had 2.1 million troops in total, including in uniform. The ratio of total population to the number of soldiers was, but the North had a much larger total population. 12.2 The Battlefront,1861-1862 Which geographic region served as the capital of the Confederate States of America? Washington D.C. Richmond, Virginia Fort Sumter, South Carolina Imagine that you are General Irvin McDowell, commander of the Union forces stationed near Washington, D.C., in 1861. You are briefing President Lincoln and his cabinet about your plans for a military campaign at Bull Run, which will become one of the first major battles of the Civil War. Based on the narrated map, select the correct response from each dropdown to complete the dialogue. PRESIDENT LINCOLN: General, as you know, our primary goal at this early stage of the war is to capture. I hear that you have a plan to help us accomplish this. MCDOWELL: The Confederates are trying to defend a critical rail junction at. I’m planning an offensive campaign to capture this junction, drive them deeper into Virginia, and send them away from Washington.
  • 2. PRESIDENT LINCOLN: Presumably, this area will be well defended. Do you think we are strong enough to mount an offensive? MCDOWELL: We are in a good position. We have roughly more troops in the area than they do. General Winfield Scott presented the Anaconda Plan to President Lincoln in the spring of 1861. Scott’s proposed strategy marked the first Union attempt to suppress the rebellion of the Confederate states. Based on the narrated map, which of the following statements accurately describes the Union’s Anaconda Plan? Check all that apply. By the end of 1861, the Union had completed its blockade of the southern coastline. President Davis authorized Confederate sailors to capture Union ships. It was a battle plan designed to start inland and drive the Confederate army to the coast, where Union ships were waiting. The Confederacy initially enjoyed a strong naval advantage but lost most of its ships during the first year of fighting. It was a naval maneuver designed to hurt the South economically by restricting access to its ports. During the early months of the war, the Union suffered a series of military defeats in the eastern theater. By early 1862, however, the Union began to achieve important victories in the western theater. When examining the past, evaluating the order of events is important for understanding the events themselves and their relationship to other events, which helps establish historical context. Based on the narrated map, complete the following timeline by selecting the correct response from each dropdown menu. January 1862 Grant’s forces gather in southern Kentucky and plan to launch an offensive. February 6, 1862 February 16, 1862 February 25, 1862 April 6, 1862 April 7, 1862 From the beginning of the war, part of the Union strategy included gaining control of the Mississippi River—a key waterway flowing north to south across the western United States.
