Please study your history. The Union armies: seized the Rebs largest ports, seized their main river, and burned their largest city, all the while slowly destroying the rebel armies. I do believe that means Johnny Reb lost the war big time!

The record shows that, despite myth, the CSA armies mostly deserted and went home more than they were defeated in battle.

If that were true, then why did it take four years to defeat an army that wasn't there?
