Ulysses S. Grant (born Hiram Ulysses Grant; April 27, 1822 – July 23, 1885) was the 18th President of the United States, Commanding General of the Army, soldier, international statesman, and author. Commanding General Grant led the Union Army to victory over the Confederacy with the supervision of Abraham Lincoln. During the Reconstruction Era, President Grant led the Republicans in their efforts to remove the vestiges of Confederate nationalism, racism, and slavery. African Americans however, were in worse political position at the end of his two terms. A nationwide economic recession, the Panic of 1873 was blamed in part on Grant, leading to Democratic gains in 1874. The disputed 1876 election crisis was peacefully resolved under Grant's supervision. * A native of Ohio, raised by Methodist parents, Grant's lineage in the new world went back several generations. From his youth, Grant was an equestrian and was able to control horses. Reluctantly sent to West Point by his father, Grant graduated the academy in 1843, and served with distinction in the Mexican–American War. Upon his return Grant married Julia Dent, and together they had four children. In 1854, Grant abruptly resigned from the army and struggled financially in civilian life for seven years. In 1861, after the Civil War broke out, Grant joined the Union Army, and rapidly rose in rank to general. Grant won major battles at Shiloh, seized Vicksburg, and gained control of the Mississippi River, that divided the Confederacy. These victories, combined with those in the Chattanooga Campaign, persuaded President Lincoln, in 1864, to promote Grant Lieutenant General, a rank previously reserved for George Washington. After costly battles, Grant trapped Robert E. Lee at Petersburg, while he coordinated other successful Union campaigns. In April 1865, Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox, effectively ending the war. On April 14, Lincoln was assassinated and succeeded by President Andrew Johnson. * Grant became increasingly disillusioned by Johnson's conservative approach to Reconstruction, and drifted toward the "Radical" Republicans. Elected president in 1868, Grant stabilized the post-war national economy, created the Department of Justice, used the military to enforce laws in the former Confederacy and prosecuted the Ku Klux Klan. Grant strengthened the Republican Party in the South and signed three civil rights acts into law. He appointed African-Americans and Jewish-Americans to prominent federal offices. In 1871, Grant created the first Civil Service Commission. The Democrats and Liberal Republicans united behind Grant's opponent in the presidential election of 1872, but Grant was re-elected by a large margin. Grant's Peace Policy for Native Americans had both successes and failures. With Secretary of State Hamilton Fish, Grant successfully resolved the Alabama claims with Great Britain and negotiated a peaceful resolution with Spain over the Virginius Affair, but Congress re... |
