False neither side was prepared to fight a war of this magnitude. Both sides had to draft hundred's of thousands of Men to fight the war. Medical supplies were in short supply along with trained medical teams. Many units had to fight with outdated weaponry like smooth bore cannons and flintlock muskets. Tactics hadn't evolved along with the new weaponry. The same tactics were being used in the Napoleonic wars. So no the north and south were not prepared for a war.
