� At the Battle of Shiloh
Sherman and Grant, while they had never been what
you would call good friends, they will first
come into their own as this wonderful duo
who will turn out to be one of the great working
partnerships of the war. While so many other fragments
of that Union army dissolve in panicked retreat, Sherman slows
the Confederate onslaught. ‐ Nevertheless,
Grant knew that he may need that division of Lew Wallace's
to survive this fight, but there's great confusion
with Wallace's division on how they should get
to the battlefield, and Wallace does not show up. As the Confederates
move forward, the fighting became more
and more constricted
