As much as Grant is seen as a butcher, if you were to look at the percentages of men lost, Lee actually lost more men per battle on average- the main difference was just the size of army. The deaths of all those men was tragic, but Grant kept pushing South unlike other generals which meant these deaths were not in vain.
@StealthMarmot_
@StealthMarmot_ Год назад
Also Grant and the union were on the offensive so they were at a disadvantage. They also weren't as familiar with the terrain so tactics were always going to favor the south a bit. More to the point though, they also were trying to make sure the people of the south would actually rejoin after the rebellion was over, so they had to be careful to not over reach.

The context of Lincoln's death is so upsetting. I can't imagine Reconstruction being easy but i feel like under Lincoln, it would have gone so much better. The more you learn about the assassination, the sadder it gets. Booth, as an actor, knew Our American Cousin by heart so he intentionally choice to shoot during one of the funniest lines in the play and Lincoln was laughing, so at least his final moments were happy. May his memory be a blessing

He was a good man with good intentions, but the end of the day his actions have only made things worse. A lot of our problems these days stem from the severe cultural differences between the South and the rest of the United States. Besides if he truly fought for freedom, he would have left the Confederacy alone and recognize that it is for the best. I wonder what he would think if he was alive today. Perhaps he would recognize the damage that his actions have caused. I should note that I do not want another Civil War or secession of Southern states again. I want a unified United States. But what I want and what needs to happen are two different things. Lincoln should have recognized that what he wanted and what needed to happen were two different things.

Well, he didn't want to get drunk- Lincoln's assassination was a well-planned conspiracy. As Wilkes killed Lincoln, the Secretaries of War, State, and the Treasury were also attacked. Two attackers screwed up, and soldiers discovered and chased down Secretary of War Stanton's attacker after he clubbed Stanton's young son in the head with a pistol.

I've been to Gettysburg, and what really struck me was just how small the whole battlefield seemed. Part of that was just my inherent perspective as someone who has lived her entire life on the West Coast, where hills and mountains are on a completely different scale than they are out east; Big Round Top would be considered a pretty small hill out here, and Little Round Top wouldn't even warrant a name as a geological feature. Trying to wrap my mind around them being important strategic points that thousands of men fought and died for was...challenging. Or standing at Devil's Den and seeing just how small of a place it was, and then remembering that 1,800 casualties were suffered between the two sides there; it would be a challenge just to fit 1,800 people there at once. The place is so small and saw so much carnage. It was really sobering.

On this channel we do mostly like to poke fun at General Winfield Scott, but he was crazy impressive. He held the position of top general for the longest time yet. He had several honourary degrees. While the Seven Days battles were happening (McClellan's retreat after he attempted to take Richmond from the southeast) Lincoln actually visited Scott, who had retired from service, at the latter's home in New York, to ask for advice on the course of the war. Scott also wrote memoirs in his retirement, and sent them to Grant, with the message "From the oldest general to the greatest." Scott died in 1866, just two weeks before his 80th birthday. He was buried in New York, in the town he lived in, and the funeral was attended by several of the top Union generals, including Grant.
@MarechalVI
@MarechalVI 6 месяцев назад
For the record, you could argue that Lee's generalship was more deserving of the title of "Butcher" than Grant's ever was. Lee often incurred far greater casualties than he inflicted, especially compared relative to the number of men he could stand to replace, opposed with the Union who could always field far more. He was always quite the romanticist, and he saw poetry in tactical brilliance, which is why he always tried to be good at it and win victories that would look cool and make for good press. Grant was a pragmatist more than anything else, and the way he conducted his battles was consistently steak over sizzle (more substantive gains). He always tried to ensure that his battles were a net gain. He never seemed to see the poetry in being good at war, but he tried to conduct the war in terms of cost efficiency. He wanted the battles he fought to be worth something. Atun-Shei did a pretty good breakdown of the generalships of Grant and Lee in his Checkmate, Lincolnites video about whether or not the Confederacy had better Generals. Also, just as a side note, when you read General Lee's quotes, he'll say some stuff like "Always do the best you can! Always work hard, be honest, and never compromise your principles!" but then after he says "Slavery as an institution is a moral and political evil in any country," he's like "Meh... I'm not gonna do anything about ending slavery because that's in God's hands, not in mine." Just ridiculous. The math doesn't add up, Bobby.

Did you know Lincoln wrote about a dream of his death weeks before it happened? He dreamed he woke up in the middle of the night and found a crowd clad in black weeping downstairs. He asked “What’s happening?” They said “Haven’t you heard? The President’s been shot.” Hearing this Lincoln walked down the hall to the very wing his body would placed in after his actual death and saw a casket in the exact same place he would be put with his own corpse inside of it.

To me the similarities between the kind of fighting seen in the U.S. Civil War and WWI despite being over 40 years apart is kind of scary. Both wars lasted four years, and saw the a major political assassination and the use of: Machine guns, barbed wire, artillery, tele-communication sabotage, bayonets attached to almost all rifles, shotguns, prolonged siege tactics, trench warfare, ironclads (primitive submarines in the case of the USS Monitor and CSS Hunley), chemical weapons (only proposed, not used), armored trains, spotter balloons, and total war.

@davewolf6256
@davewolf6256 3 года назад
@@cruizy5955 That's an interesting question. On a cultural level, there would be barriers. Grant was born to a family that was only 1-2 generations into the middle class, whereas Washington was from as close to an aristocracy as there was in Virginia colony. Grant was a salt of the earth kind of a guy. It's true that he inherited slaves through his wife, but he caused a small scandal by doing manual labor with them in his farm. The video also makes his taste for liquor a thing. But he was also easily led by the hand. (His administration is historically remembered as one of the most corrupt, and the word "lobbyist" was wrongly claimed to have been coined during the Grant administration.) Maybe the greatest difference between Washington and Grant is their military record. Grant's successes were the result of his taking chances, which he could afford to do for the resource and people rich Union. Unlike Grant, Washington lost more battles than he won, often due to lack of resources and low morale. What made Washington brilliant was he had a big picture understanding that Pyrrhic victories for the English, and not strategic defeats, would win the war for the colonies. As was mentioned in the Revolutionary War video, Washington's strength was he made the most of his advisors--which was a characteristic of the Washington presidency as well. (It also tends to be the characteristic that the most successful blue bloods have in common.) And it also contrasts with Grant--who had the personality of a bold maverick. He was at his best when he stood out of a crowd. Washington was at his best when he brought people together. Their ideals may also have been different. Washington was shrewd and cynical, which probably permitted him to do immoral things--slavery, adultery, etc. Washington also famously believed the US would not last 20 years under the 1786 Constitution--he believed Civil War was inevitable. Grant was a kind of lazy idealist and only began to sympathize with Abolition in the late 1850s. But Washington was moved by the occupation of Boston, which was when he began to identify with the Revolutionaries. At that point, he believed the colonies finally had a just cause for rebellion. This is why I think Washington would not have sided with the Confederacy. Washington, mind you an elitist, was reserved and conservative with regard to when a people can revolt from their nation. He would have seen the Confederacy, which seceded before Lincoln was sworn in, as merely criminals. So I think Washington and Grant's political views would not have separated them, they may have hypothetically brought them together. And I will say that Washington did play favorites in his army, and he favored bolder generals. My belief is that Washington could have brought the best out of someone like Grant. But their relationship would never have been equals. Washington had a more continent leadership style, whereas Grant had a sensitivity that could be taken advantage of--and probably was what led him to drink. But it is an unlikely friendship that hypotherically could have lasted a long time, despite some huge differences in the men themselves.

The guy had great military tactic, but he owned and beat about 200 slaves, and was fighting for the state right to own slaves, so that he and his people (the white rich) could continue to benefit off free labor at the cost of jobs for poor white people. Nothing to admire about him. He was certainly a formidable bad guy. That's about it. He was no hero. And don't forget that for all his military "heroics", it was US Americans he was killing, and he was part of a foreign enemy nation that attacked the US first. ----- "Lee’s heavy hand on the Arlington, Virginia, plantation, Pryor writes, nearly led to a slave revolt, in part because the enslaved had been expected to be freed upon their previous master’s death, and Lee had engaged in a dubious legal interpretation of his will in order to keep them as his property, one that lasted until a Virginia court forced him to free them." - The Atlantic Lee's words: "The painful discipline they [black people] are undergoing, is necessary for their instruction as a race, & I hope will prepare & lead them to better things. How long their subjugation may be necessary is known & ordered by a wise Merciful Providence." Lee's words: "that unless some humane course is adopted, based on wisdom and Christian principles, you do a gross wrong and injustice to the whole negro race in setting them free" --- "Lee worked the slaves for about five years in order to pay off legacies associated with his father-in-law’s estate. “He was utilizing the slave labor in order to pay the legacies,” Reeves explained. Lee wanted to work the slaves beyond the five-year limit stated in his father-in-law’s will. Lee fought in court to keep the slaves working because he didn’t know if he would be able to pay off his legacies. Wesley Norris was born a slave on the plantation that Lee managed after his father-in-law died. Norris testified during the court fight that Lee beat him when he tried to run away. “Every one of the facts in Wesley Norris’ account has been shown to be true,” John Reeves [historian] noted. " - AP news --- "Robert E. Lee personally owned slaves that he inherited upon the death of his mother, Ann Lee, in 1829. (His son, Robert E. Lee Jr., gave the number as three or four families.) Following the death of his father-in-law, George Washington Parke Custis, in 1857, Lee assumed command of 189 enslaved people, working the estates of Arlington, White House, and Romancoke. Custis’ will stipulated that the enslaved people that the Lee family inherited be freed within five years. Lee, as executor of Custis’ will and supervisor of Custis’ estates, drove his new-found labor force hard to lift those estates from debt. Concerned that the endeavor might take longer than the five years stipulated, Lee petitioned state courts to extend his control of enslaved people. The Custis bondspeople, aware of their former owner’s intent, resisted Lee’s efforts to enforce stricter work discipline. " - the American Civil War Museum

No. Desire to keep a population enchained to profit off them, more likely. That's all the North really wanted, was to end slavery. Rich white southerners could have given those jobs to poor white people instead of owning black slaves. They chose not to do that.

@@georockstar09 The war was not about slavery at all until making it about slavery benefitted the North by keeping Britian out of the war. The war was about the North wanting to keep the colonies united and the South wanting to be separated because they fully believed the north was trying to undermine their success by taking away thier biggest source of income. (Which is the slaves who worked for free, so more money. Why would anyone want to pay the poor anything when they can have free labor?) Does that make it right? Absolutely not, but it's far from the absolute evil that was the Nazis. This is a time where humans had just discovered their *basic human rights* because human nature is truly evil. Before the colonies, mercantilism was the prime system which is literally the country with the most money is the most powerful. It creates stingy people, and the colonies originated from Britian who fit money hungry to the letter T. Evey country at the time had enslaved people even if slavery was banned. (The Berlin Conference). The North was demanding the South to do something out of the social norms at the time. To be fair, I'd be hesitant too to take up such a deal just cause it's fair when history makes it very clear what European countries like Britian and France do to underdeveloped countries they think they can imperialize and control just cause they have the power to. Especially with the way Britian monitors the colonies despite them gaining independence.

This video account is rather one sided in favor of the north and has left out a lot of details and events. There are numerous reliable books on the subject. John Wilkes Booth was a confederate soldier who was angry that president Lincoln ignored numerous requests from the Southern side to release the Southern P.O.W. soldiers that were held captive in the North and dying of starvation illness and cold conditions at the hands of the Northern soldiers. Lincoln refused several requests by the South to exchange Northern P.OW. soldiers being held captive in the South for Southern P.O.W. soldiers held captive in the North. In anger John Wilkes Booth that was a confederate soldier shot Abraham Lincoln on Good Friday as a possibility that he was trying to send a message that Lincoln thought of himself as God as Lincoln had also stated that he was a Free Thinker and not religious. Far more lives both soldiers and civilians were lost on the Southern side and the North got help from Europe. Also the South was sabotaged in unexpected ways. Then later came the Carpetbaggers from the North to take whatever they could and raise prices in the South after the war.
