US General in Chief US Grant's tactics in Virginia have often been termed tactics of annihilation in 1864, however that is not correct. The misuse of Grant's unsuccessful frontal assaults yielded, for the most part, only massive Union casualties. For example in the Battle of Cold Harbor, Grant lost 7,000 men, killed or wounded in frontal attacks against General Lee's solid fortifications. Grant was successful when he abandoned his attempt of annihilating the Army of Northern Virginia and reverted to one of "exhaustion". Briefly described, this amounted to a tactic, used in Napoleonic Era battles whereby, the enemy army was beaten through exhausting their lines of supply. It should not be confused with tactics of attrition, which is another form of annihilation.
