A Bloodless Glory: Ulysses S. Grant, The Unheralded Tactician

Ulysses S. Grant is one of the most enigmatic figures in American history. He was a brilliant military commander who led the Union to victory in the Civil War, but he was also a controversial president whose reputation has been tarnished by scandal.

This book takes a fresh look at Grant’s life and career, revealing a complex and fascinating man who was both a military genius and a flawed human being. The book draws on new research to shed light on Grant’s early life, his military career, his presidency, and his later years.

Grant was born in Ohio in 1822. He attended West Point, but he resigned from the Army after serving for several years. He worked as a farmer and a businessman before the Civil War broke out in 1861. Grant rejoined the Army and quickly rose through the ranks. He won a series of victories in the Western Theater, including the Battle of Vicksburg, which was a turning point in the war. In 1864, Grant was appointed General-in-Chief of the Union Army. He led the Union to victory at the Battle of Appomattox Court House, which effectively ended the Civil War.

After the war, Grant served as President of the United States for two terms. His presidency was marked by scandal and controversy. He was accused of corruption and nepotism, and his administration was plagued by economic problems. Grant’s reputation has been rehabilitated in recent years, and he is now considered one of the greatest military commanders in American history.

This book offers a balanced and insightful assessment of Grant’s life and career. It is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, military history, or biography.
