quote:
Grant sustained 9,135 men killed or wounded during the Vicksburg campaign while the Confederates suffered 5,291 combat casualties. Grant only "inflicted more casualties" if you factor in surrendered enemies.
That’s how a causality is defined by Francis Kennedy (and in general), as the Confederate forces were paroled on the condition that they could not take up arms against the Union again, denying the Confederacy of men. Surrounding Vicksburg, and forcing the surrender of an army of 30,000 men is no easy feat, and I don’t know why you would underrate it.
