Perhaps one telling factor on the South's value of Vicksburg lay in their choice of generals that were there to defend the city. Confederate General Pemberton was given command of Vicksburg, however, he was never considered to be a top Confederate general.

Why was the capture of Vicksburg important to the North?

Vicksburg was the key to the Anaconda Plan's goal of gaining control of the Mississippi River and cutting the South in half. So true, although the Winfield Scott plan was laughed at when he suggested it, it had to be clear that controlling the Mississippi River was vital to the North's war efforts.


The Siege of Vicksburg gave the Union what?

The result of the siege of Vicksburg was the surrender of the city as food was running out and the people and soldiers there had no choice. With Vicksburg in the hands of the Union, it had increased control of the Mississippi River. This did not split the Confederacy in half as is almost cited as a plus. The real plus was the propaganda value it gave to the North. Ships traveling on the Mississippi could be victims of cannon fire from artillery on the banks of the river and from torpedoes. The logistical situation for the South did not change as supplies flowed both east & west via different routes and it was not any large military problem for the South. What it did was force the Union to garrison the city depriving the army of troops needed elsewhere.

How did Confederate Secretary of War James Seddon attempt to aid Vicksburg?

Although General Robert E. Lee and senior members of the Confederate high command were certain that Vicksburg would play no part in the US Civil, Lee's raid into Pennsylvania in late June of 1863, might have helped relieve some pressure on Vicksburg. The problem was that unless Lee was immediately successful, Lee's incursion to the North and into Pennsylvania would not help Vicksburg.That being the case, and the fall of Vicksburg on July 4, 1863 could not have been prevented. Only if Lee had won earlier in Pennsylvania and occupied Harrisburg, would Union troops be forced to forget Vicksburg for a time and rescue the North, in a manner of speaking. Secretary of War Seddon saw the propaganda value to the North by taking Vicksburg. With that in mind, Seddon planned an offensive aimed at Helena, Arkansas. The force was led by Major General Theophilus Hunter Holmes. It failed.
