The most senior Confederate General, Sidney Johnston, was killed.
U.S. Grant was the victor, although he had been taken by surprise on the first day and almost lost his army.
The politician-in-uniform John McClernand claimed that he alone had prevented this by keeping his brigade on alert. It raised his profile, but led to a long and bitter feud with Grant.
Sherman was also present, and his close partnership with Grant began here.

Shiloh's high casualty rates finally convinced many people that it would be a long and bloody struggle.
Each side lost about 1,700 men killed.
Over 10,000 casualties were suffered on each side.
No. The battle that had the highest casualties for one day was Antietam. Gettysburg's 3-day battle was the bloodiest. Shiloh was the first large battle in Spring of 1862 with thousands of casualties. When people read about this, they realized the war would be long and very bloody.
