For six weeks David Glasgow Farragut's naval forces could not force Vicksburg to surrender. Realizing that it could not be taken from the Mississippi River, the Union decided to move the river away from Vicksburg. This was the start of two poorly planned and poorly supplied unprecedented engineering efforts to divert the course of the river.
