“Ah, no.”

It was the industrial base of the North that gave them victory. Do you deny this?

If not, then why are you arguing the point?

‘It was the industrial base of the North that gave them victory. Do you deny this?’

If that was the whole case, the war would have ended long before Grant’s promotion. It didn’t, because the leadership and the tactics employed prior to his advancement in rank did not utilize the overwhelming numerical advantages in all areas.

‘If not, then why are you arguing the point?’

I’m not ‘arguing the point’ I’m noting the topic was, as silly as it will read - ‘Grants tactics resembled a steamroller more than a GTO’.

Thats all.
