Briefly explain how one development from the period 1861-1865 not directly mentioned in the excerpts supports mcpherson’s argument

The excerpt supports McPherson's argument that the war was in three forms, first through the mobilization of human and material resources by both sides, secondly, it ended with negotiated peace where victory ranged on one side but destroyed the economy and social systems of the losers. It led to the creation of a new Nation.
