What is the name of the Union General who created the Union's War plan of suffocating the South like a boa constrictor?
Winfield Scott, whose picture is above, created a plan that became known as the "Anaconda Plan".
Why did the press and General McClellan oppose the Anaconda Plan?
They thought it was far too slow and ponderous. Most people in Spring 1861 thought it would be a short and glorious war, and they ridiculed this long-term strategy of slowly squeezing the life out of the Confederacy, like an anaconda. Presently, they found that it was not going to be a short war at all, and the Union eventually followed a plan very similar to the Anaconda.
Why was Winfield Scott not a particular asset to the Union's US Civil War effort?
Quite simply Scott at 75 when the Civil War began was to old and in such poor health that he was unable to take to the field. To his credit, the often derided Anaconda Plan was his creation and was used by the Union. He retired in 1861 and died on 29 May 1866 at 79 years of age. Some believe that because he was a Virginian his sentiment lay with the South, however he was strongly anti-slavery.At the beginning of the US Civil War, Lincoln relied on Scott's opinions but did not always follow through on them.Also, at one point US President Lincoln traveled to West Point to ask General Scott his opinion of the Union war effort.Scott was unappreciated. This was seen as the Union installed almost to a "T" his anaconda plan.
