What was seen by many historians as the problems the strategy of the Union plans on the Fall of 1862 posed?
ChuckSiata
Because the Union's strategy and operational planning revolved and focused on geographical objectives, meeting their objectives would not deliver a decisive result to end the war. Here is why and it's an opinion, nothing carved in stone:
A. Clearing the Mississippi and capturing Vicksburg, yes would help the North long term, however, it would not destroy the ability to thwart the South's war making ability or its will to fight;
B. Even if Burnside was able to capture Richmond, it would not bring the war to end, only the pride of the South would be damaged; and
C. Even if Rosecrans cleared eastern Tennessee, it would not in the opinion of Civil War experts produce any substantial results.
