Following his victory in the 1860 presidential election, Lincoln took direct control of Northern military forces from his vacillating generals and controlled the fighting until he appointed Gen Ulysses .S. Grant. His Emancipation Proclamation freeing the slaves helped quantify the fight against the Confederacy, as did his resolve in keeping the Union together.
