While your statement is generally accurate, in Grant’s case, he was weirdly effective. Especially with Sherman’s boys “making Georgia howl” at the same time.

From the time Grant began the Overland Campaign, I believe it was 9 weeks until Lee was essentially bottled up in Petersburg and reduced to delaying the inevitable.
