The sad fact is: the South did not have a well-developed coordinated overall strategy. Davis had a vague sense of using a Strategy of Attrition to wear down the will of the northern politicians, but there was no Fabian Policy, no articulated set of operations to guide the commanders, and not until the last months of the war was there an overall commander to guide such a policy. It was only the brilliance of Lee's and Jackson's aggressive defense in Northern Virginia that kept the South in the war as long as it was.
