Although the emancipation proclamation did not end slavery it captured the hearts and imaginations of a lot of Americans and it transformed the whole idea of the war.

From the first days of the Civil War, slaves had acted to secure their own liberty. The Emancipation Proclamation confirmed their insistence that the war for the Union must become a war for freedom. It added moral force to the Union cause and strengthened the Union both militarily and politically.
