Yesterday. January 7th, we took notes on the Anaconda Plan and we had the memorization quiz on the Gettysburg address. The Union planned to circle the Confederacy, then close in, slowly "strangling" its prey.
Today, January 8th, we took notes on the end of the Civil War. General Lee (Confederacy) realized that his troops were no longer in a state to fight and further war would only cause more destruction, so he met with General Grant (Union) for the terms of surrender.
