Abbott’s ‘The Life of General Ulysses S. Grant’ first published in 1868. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUlysses S. Grant (born Hiram Ulysses Grant; April 27, 1822 – July 23, 1885) was the 18th President of the United States (1869–1877). As commanding general, Grant led the Union Armies to victory over the Confederacy in the American Civil War, which ended shortly after Robert E. Lee surrendered to him at Appomattox in 1865. After the war, Grant served as peacetime general, implementing Congressional Reconstruction, often at odds with President Andrew Johnson. Twice elected president, Grant led the Radical Republicans in their effort to remove the vestiges of Confederate nationalism and slavery, protect African-American citizenship, and defeat the Ku Klux Klan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR\u003cbr\u003ePREFACE\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER I.
