Mead's idea was to stop the advance of Lee's forces and to destroy them, if possible. Lee's specific strategic goal has never been fully articulated. His forces threatened several Northern cities in the East. His original intention may have been to relieve pressure on Vicksburg in the West by drawing forces away to protect the East. He may have hoped to force Northern politicians to the peace table, or to frighten Northern voters into opting for the peace candidates in the elections of 1864, but that is mere surmise. Lee remained mute on the subject until his death.
