The Union forces are considered to have won the Battle of Shiloh, although it was not the type of victory any army wants. General Grant and his army were surprised by the Confederate army under General Albert Sydney Johnston and after the first day the Union army was pushed back over a mile to the river when fighting was over for the day. General Johnston had been killed in battle that first day. During the night another Union army Under General Don Carlos Buell arrived at the scene. The combined armies then attacked the regrouping Confederate army and was able to force it to retreat. Th Union army had been totally surprised by the attack and had about 14,000 casualties but it held the ground. The Confederate army managed almost total surprise, but did not achieve its objective of driving the Union army out of the area and lost about 10,000 casualties.
