I've got a book from Kendall Gott titled "Where The South Lost The War" and his premise is that the deciding battle was Fort Henry/Fort Donelson in February 1862.

I just found the hardcover edition on Amazon, but I'm going to see if I can find it in paperback, primarily because I'm getting cheaper as I get older. :) Do you think there's too much focus on Vicksburg and the campaign there on the Western front?

No, if anything I think there has historically been too much focus on the eastern theater. The war was lost in the west.
