Four months of fighting, mainly in the west.
Grant is now at the gates of Memphis,
but not after a horrible battle that saw Sherman killed and Lyons wounded.
The Army of the Ohio is fighting for Nashville
and McPherson has broken through headed for Decatur.
Further naval activity had gone badly for the Confederates
with two of their ironclads sent to the bottom of the Mississippi mud.
Down south it is a bit of cat and mouse.
The Union can't quiet get the numbers to keep the Rebs down.
There has been limited fight over East with the Potomac creating a natural border
