The strategy was called The Anaconda Plan. It was devised by General Scott in the early days of the war. It called for the blockade of southern ports, closing the Mississippi to southern supply traffic, and starving the South into submission. The actual events modified the plan by also capturing the Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers, and advancing into the heartland of the South, but the overall design remained intact.
