During the winter of 1864-65, the end of the Civil War neared as
Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant maintained pressure against the
dying Confederacy. Major General William T. Sherman ripped through
Georgia and presented Savannah to President Abraham Lincoln as a
Christmas gift. Grant continued the long siege at Petersburg,
pinning down General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. He
held Lee in place while his armies demolished the Confederacy
elsewhere. Grant knew that the Confederacy could not long survive.
He must have seen it in the faces of the Confederate peace
commissioners who appeared at City Point at the end of January,
although their meeting with Lincoln at Hampton Roads was
unproductive. Grant prepared to strike the final blow.
