Best Answer

Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox, purely because his lines had worn so thin that they couldn't hold. This was taken as the virtual ending of the war, although Joe Johnston still commanded a Confederate army in North Carolina that did not surrender to Sherman for a couple more weeks.
