By 1863, control of most of the Mississippi River was in Union hands. To gain control of the last major port city serving as an open shipping door to the South, Grant weakened the enemy with a military campaign that lasted several months. First he isolated the port city by gaining control of the railroad, and then he began a seven-week artillery siege to force surrender.

What is the port city described above?
