After Grant managed to cross the river, the surrender of Vicksburg was not 'if' but 'when'.
Pemberton did score some successes against Sherman, but was fatally handicapped by conflicting orders - President Davis telling him to hold the town at any cost, and his immediate superior Joe Johnston urging him to abandon the place and join forces with him.
In Virginia, Longstreet wanted to send troops to help Pemberton, and some say this could have saved the situation in the West.
