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.
In 1864, US President Lincoln believed he had finally found a general that would be an effective commander of the Union army. US Grant had shown himself to be a true fighting general. He became the Union's general in chief and proved to be the right choice. Lincoln had a bad record on appointing generals. This time he had it right.
