It did not strictly 'turn the war' - which lasted another three years and two months.

But it marked the end of Confederate hopes of occupying Western Tennessee and controlling the Mississippi. In due course, the war in the West would be won, and Grant would be free to reinforce the Union armies elsewhere.
