    As long as we're on the subject of Grant, I wrote a whole essay about his greatness as a military and political leader. One of my favorite pieces.https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/thoughts-on-the-greatness-of-ulysses-s-grant …

        He understood total warfare, imo. Rare in those days.

        Grant has been called the first modern general both for his effective use of technological advances and for his adoption of total war strategy.

        I highly recommend the chapter on Grant in Keegan's Mask of Command.

        Its really hard for me to focus on anything other than the graft and corruption surrounding Grant in his presidential terms. Doesn't strike me as great political leadership

        There's some truth in that. But a lot of it is also Lost Cause mythology. Reconstruction is Grant when it comes to presidential power. That really doesn't capture your attention?
