Grant: Massive Siege of Vicksburg Leads to Union Victory | History

Abe was 56 when he died , why do you a voice for him that sounds like an 85 year old man in a wheel chair

"He then dug another series of entrenchments facing the other way" ..... Julius Ceasar "My man!"

Just been watching clips of this all morning. What a great docu-drama series. I have to see the full thing.

"No terms except an unconditional and immediate surrender can be accepted."
¨Unconditional Surrender¨ Grant

One the finest Americans that ever lived.

No mention of Grierson's Raid.

Grant is the reason we were able to put down the confederacy and yes he made some tragic blunders at the at the Wilderness and Cold Harbor but from that point
Grant’s relentless push forward inspired his troops and revealed the reason for the South’s early victories incompetent General officers on the Union side

Grant is my hero

What kind of President is ignorant enough to attack 50% of his countries economic system, in an agrarian society. When All People have got to EAT?
When his own Union army consisted of 60% Farmers. Who was growing Americas' Food. while America were off upholding a Presidents' ambitions in a USA, "Constitutional REPUBLIC?"

Where are the space aliens? Lol Finally some real history on the History Channel.

to anyone that can see the truth this was clearly an act of the most high all the south main objectives being crush on the same day around the same hours he had had enough watching these strangers holding his real children as slaves and these days all those so called UFO's are here to finish the job

tallimg heads history channel

you white people better take notice that the most high hand was 1000 percent in this he brought their whole empire down on the same day but people gave it right back to them by setting up south the with the same structure and southern control so the destruction of this place is still in order for this this so called america will be destroyed and i say good judgement

We have a type of soil here which which can easily e carved and hold its shape .

Gran also issued rations to the Confederate army after they surrendered.

You rally should have covered he 5 battles Grant won on the way to Vicksburg. Sherman called it he greatest campaign ever.

Best statement sidearms, horses, NO SLAVES !!!! No Slaves leave with you....

God Bless General Grant and God Bless those White and Black US Cavalry Troops who help and freed my ancestors from slavery ,God Bless them and also those brave Union Army troops souls General Grant / President Grant is one of the few legendary Republicans I have respect for.

I just love history

""Both Lincoln and Grant were from the West"" ✌️🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣☕☕☕☕🇺🇸

The South in the Western theater had a winning strategy, as revealed in 1862, when a three prong Union attack was thwarted by southern cavalry raids that cut their communications and supplies, forcing a retreat...they needed to perfect and keep at this....

Two girls one lunch?

Interestingly, Pemberton was a northerner, from Pennsylvania. As he was capitulating to Grant in Mississippi, on the 4th of July, no less, a Confederate Army under R E Lee was ignominiously retreating from Pemberton's native Pennsylvania, never to return.

My God, I love Grant!

Actual History on the History Channel. Next accomplishment, actual Wild Animals on Animal Planet

Wait, where are the aliens and pawn shops???

Said it before. Will say it again. The south REALLY WANTED to keep slavery

good grant the most high use you telling that trash to let his people go he could have made your heart to do worse this was a warning to the that southern trash that their so called glory was at an end but their maga will attempt it again with a far worse outcome not one of them will be put back in charge ever again

The things family do to each other, huh?

And that is why us Southerns do not particularly care for grant. And i dont ethier attacking soldiers is another story but making the southern citizens suffer was wrong. I dont like grant and never will.

For those who consider Devine providence. Three presidents have died on July 4th. John Adam's and Thomas Jefferson on the 50 aniversary within a few hours of each other. James Monroe 5 years later. The South surrendered at Vicksburg on July 3rd the South then retreated at Gettysburg on July 4th and President Lincoln received the news of both victories on July 4th. So how many people are now calling some of these founder's racist today? It's sad isn't it.

Best show I have watched in a long time!

We need a serie like this (With actoors, reenacting etc...) with Jeff Davis, Robert Lee and Nathan Forrest! We need to present them too, to understand why the Southern States were pro-slavery...

You just have to love people from Ohio.

As General Lee said, if I knew how they would treat us I would have never surrendered.

Owning a slave really is like owning a livestock.... How one can do that is hard to imagine..

understanding comes with perils as who to believe and what was hype>

Chimney Town.

"Hey, Vicksburg being choked. I know! Let's go to Pennsylvania ..."
Good plan there Lee.

They should have been deported. Traitors one and all.

My great great great grandfather got his butt whooped , he was pardoned after 5 days

Yea and look at the country today, the south wanted no park of what was happening in the north, dking animals smh ole Hank was right , we would’ve had it made 🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

အဲလို မွေးမြူစိတ်နဲ့ အောင်မြင်ရမယ်။

Grant did at Vicksburg what Caesar did at Alesia. First builds a wall to siege the city, then builds a defensive wall around himself so no one would bother him

You see we treat Democrats better than they treat Republicans Republican North Democrats South.

Man it’s such a shame Sherman wasn’t allowed to just finished the job.

Lol grant tries to sound morally superior but he bought a slave while living in the north. Learn your history from real sources everyone!
