General William T. Sherman urged the new lieutenant general, US Grant to avoid going to Washington DC and to command troops in Virginia. Sherman was concerned about the political situation in the Union's capital, and how that could influence Grant's military plans.Sherman believed that Grant could command the Union armies from the West, where Sherman believed was the key to victory. From Grant's comfort zone in the West he would be able to successfully march into Charleston and Richmond as well.
Most importantly was the political advice he gave to Grant. He reminded Grant that as general in chief, that as far as he was concerned, Grant was the true legitimate successor of George Washington. Any defeats that Grant might suffer would cast doubt on Grant's abilities. Sherman believed that Grant had to preserve his prestige and let him strike from the West Chattanooga.
