Essential Question:–What factors led to the
outbreak of the Civil War?
Warm-Up Question:– If the Union had more troops,
industry, & transportation when the Civil War began, what should their war strategy be?

Secession of the Southern States
Lincoln's election in 1860 brought the Southern states to the point of secession and Lincoln to a fateful question:
Should he allow peaceful secession or should he coerce the rebels to stay in the Union?
![Page 4: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
First Inaugural Address“In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and
not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you. You can have no conflict without being yourselves the aggressors. You have an oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to ‘preserve, protect, and defend it.”
“I am loath to close. We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.”

Secession in the SouthLincoln’s election led to
secession by 7 states in the Deep South but that did not necessarily mean “civil war”
Two things had to happen first:–One last failed attempt to
reconcile the North & South –The North had to use its
military to protect the Union
The failed Crittenden Compromise in 1860
Fort Sumter, South Carolina
![Page 6: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
SC seceded on Dec 20,1860 The entire Deep South
seceded by Feb 1861
The Upper South did not view Lincoln’s election as a death sentence
& did not secede immediately
“Lame duck” Buchanan took no action to stop the South from seceding
Some Northerners thought the U.S. would be better off if the
South was allowed to peacefully secede
![Page 7: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Secession & the Formation of the Confederate States of AmericaOn Feb 4, 1861, the Confederate
States of America were formed
The CSA constitution resembled the U.S., but with 4 key changes: (1) it protected states’
rights, (2) guaranteed slavery, (3) referenced God, & (4) prohibited protective tariffs
Mississippi Senator Jefferson Davis was elected CSA president
![Page 9: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Start of the Civil War, 1861When Lincoln was elected in 1860, 7 Southern states seceded from the Union &
formed the Confederate States of AmericaThe Civil War began when Fort Sumter was fired upon by Confederate soldiers
4 more Southern states seceded in 1861 when Lincoln called for military volunteers to “preserve the Union”

Northern Advantages At the outbreak of the Civil War, the
North had lots of advantages:–Larger population for troops–Greater industrial capacity–Huge edge in RR transportation
Problem for the North:–Had to invade the South to win–Difficult to maintain enthusiasm &
support for war over time
![Page 16: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Southern Advantages Although outnumbered & less
industrial, South had advantages:–President Davis knew that they did
not have to “win” the war; the South only had to drag out the fight & make the North quit
–Had the best military leaders –England & France appeared more
willing to support the South Robert E. “Stonewall” J.E.B. Lee Jackson
Stuart
“King Cotton” diplomacy

Union Strategy The Union strategy during the war
was called the Anaconda Plan:–Blockade the coast, seize the
Mississippi River to divide the South, & take Richmond
–Exploit South’s dependency on foreign trade & its inability to manufacture weapons
–Relied on Northern advantages in population, industry, & military production
![Page 19: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Blockade the Southern coast
Take control of the Mississippi River
Divide the West from South
Take the CSA capital at Richmond
Ulysses Grant in the
West
George McClellan
was in charge of
Army of the Potomac

Confederate Strategy The Confederate strategy during the
war was an Offensive / Defense:–Protect Southern territory from
“Northern aggression” but attack into Union territory when the opportunity presents itself
–Get Britain & France to join their cause because of European dependency on “King Cotton”
–Drag out the war as long as possible to make the North quit
![Page 21: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Political Leadership During the Civil War
During the Civil War, President Lincoln used “emergency powers” to
protect “national security”:•Suspended habeas corpus (Laws requiring evidence before citizens can be jailed)
•Closed down newspapers• that did not support the war
During the Civil War, President Jefferson Davis
had a difficult time:•The CSA Constitution protected states’ rights so state governors could refuse to send him money or troops
•CSA currency inflated by 7,000%
The national government in the USA & CSA relied on volunteer armies in the beginning, but soon needed conscription (draft) to supply their
armies with troops

Fighting the Civil War: 1861-1865
From 1861 to mid-1863, the Confederate army was winning the Civil War:– Defensive strategy carried out by
superior Southern generals like Robert E. Lee & “Stonewall” Jackson
– Disagreements among military & political leaders in the North
![Page 27: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Bull Run (Manassas), 1861: The 1st battle of the Civil War; Stonewall Jackson kept
the Union army from taking the CSA capital at Richmond
![Page 28: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

New Orleans, 1862 (USA)
From 1861-1862, the CSA had success in the East, but the USA had success
in the West
![Page 29: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Antietam, 1862: General Lee’s 1st attempt to attack
outside the CSA was halted by McClellan
![Page 30: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Antietam, 1862 Even though the Battle of Antietam
ended without a clear winner, it had important effects on the North:–The battle convinced Britain &
France not to support the Confederacy in the war
–The battle convinced Lincoln that the time was right to make the emancipation of slaves the new focus of the war for the North
![Page 31: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Battle of Antietam “Bloodiest Single Day of the War”
23,000 casualties
![Page 32: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Emancipation Proclamation After Antietam, Lincoln issued the
Emancipation Proclamation:–This executive order freed all
slaves in Confederate territories–It did not free slaves in the border
states, however it gave the North a new reason fight
–Inspired Southern slaves to escape which forced Southern whites to worry about their farms
“…all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom...”

Fredericksburg, 1862 (CSA)
Chancellorsville, 1863 The Confederates won, but
Stonewall Jackson was killed; Lee said of Jackson: “He has lost his left arm, but I have lost my right
arm”After Antietam, the
Confederates continued to win in the East
![Page 39: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Conclusions: 1861-1863
Despite being outnumbered & under-equipped, the CSA dominated the fighting in the East from 1861-1863 due to better generals & a defensive strategy
But, the Union Army was having success in the West under the
leadership of Ulysses S. Grant
By mid-1863, the weight of the Northern population
& industrial capacity will begin to turn the tide of the
war in favor of the Union
![Page 40: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Fighting the Civil War: 1863-1865
When the Civil War began, most expected the fighting to end quickly, but the war lasted until 1865 due to:–The commitment of the Union &
Confederacy to “total war” –Excellent Southern generals like
Robert E. Lee– Improved, industrial weaponry
![Page 41: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
New Weapons but Old Tactics• New weapons:
– Long-range artillery & the Gatling gun (1st machine gun)
– Cone-shaped bullets & grooved barrel rifles for more accuracy
– Ironclad naval ships like the USS Monitor & CSS Virginia
• Old tactics such as massed formations & frontal assaults– Led to huge casualty rates

Fighting “Total War”The Civil War was the world’s 1st
“total war” in which the entire economy was devoted to winning:–North & South employed
female workers to meet supply demands
Women took gov’t jobs as bookkeepers, clerks & secretaries; A
number of women also served as spies (Rose Greenhow, CSA)
Women’s most prominent role
was as nurses on the battlefield:
distributing medical supplies,
organizing hospitals, &
offering comfort to wounded or dying
soldiersEx. Clara Barton
future founder of the American Red
Cross
![Page 45: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
The Tide of the War Turns in 1863
By 1863, the Confederacy was having difficulty sustaining the fight:–Attempts to lure Britain & France
into the war had failed –The Union blockade, limited
Southern manufacturing, & lack of grain fields left CSA soldiers ill-supplied
–To pay for the war, the CSA printed money leading to massive inflation
![Page 46: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Gettysburg, 1863:In July, Robert E Lee decided to take advantage of his victory at
Chancellorsville & attack Northern soil to end the war
quickly by crushing Union morale
Gettysburg proved to be the turning point of the war; Lee
was halted, the CSA never again attacked Union soil, & the Union army began winning the
war
Vicksburg, 1863: Grant cut off Southern access to Mississippi River & divided the
South into two halves (considered the other “turning point” in the war); Grant was
then promoted to lead the entire Union army

The principles that our government were founded upon
This Civil War is a test to see if these principles will last, because
other republics have failed
We need to make sure that the Union wins the Civil War in order to
preserve our form of gov’t
![Page 49: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Fighting the Civil War: 1863-1865
Under Grant’s leadership, the Union army was more aggressive & committed to destroy the South’s will to fight:–Grant appointed William T. Sherman
to lead the Southern campaign –Sherman destroyed everything of
value to the South & emancipated slaves during his “march to the sea”
![Page 50: The Civil War: 1861 -- 1865 ( Unit III , Segment 2 of 3 )](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5681654c550346895dd7c6a2/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Sherman considered “total war”necessary to defeat the South
The Battle of Atlanta was a huge victory for the Union because it took out a major Southern railroad terminus

Lincoln’s 2nd Inaugural “With malice towards none; with
