The Anaconda Plan or Scott's Great Snake is the name widely applied to an outline strategy for subduing the seceding states in the American Civil War. Proposed by General-in-Chief Winfield Scott, the plan emphasized the blockade of the Southern ports, and called for an advance down the Mississippi River to cut the South in two. The plan was sound, however, many Northerners demanded direct and fast action to end the Southern rebellion. Later major parts of the plan would be implemented.
