Final Paper
Topic: Why did the North win the War? Compare Northern and Southern armies, economic capabilities,

and their changing strategies. Give specific examples of Grant’s and Lee’s strategies in action and

explain how Grant ended stalemate and achieved victory.

The Final Paper is to be between 6 and 8 pages in length. Going over the minimum page length

requirement is acceptable; however, I am not looking for a 15+ page Final Paper! Also, you must

demonstrate knowledge of how to conduct research. This means you are required to find and use a

minimum of 5 scholarly sources (e.g. GMC Textbook, GMC Library, and Google Scholar).
All papers are to have an APA title page and an APA reference page. The APA title page and APA

reference page do NOT count towards the minimum page requirement! Your body of work needs to be

between 6 and 8 pages! Also, you do not need to put your footnotes at the bottom of each page

throughout the body of the paper. Instead, you may do the following for this paper:
“The War of 1812 was started by America.” (Kucsan, 2009) or (the authors last name). Now if you are

using more than one article by the same author then you need to put in the title of the article…

such as (Kucsan, 2009, Consequences of the War of 1812). If you are using 2 different works with

authors of the same last name then do the following; (Kucsan, P, 2009) Just put in the first

initial.
