Best Answer

Lincoln did not relieve Grant of his duties, however, he did have to reprimand him after Grant issued what is known as Order No. 1, which was anti-Semitic. Grant would go on to serve as the 18th U.S. President.

What advantages did the north lack in fighting the civil war?

One key advantage the North lacked was the number of generals who could serve a "general in chief " of the entire Union military. Lincoln had to appoint, then relieve far too many generals whom he appointed to take on that responsibility with success. Finally, Lincoln appointed General Grant to handle that assignment and Grant succeeded where the former generals failed.
