-
He tried to have a peace policy and was far less aggressive than Sherman or Sheridan, much closer to Nelson Miles.

He wasn't, but given that he was arguably the best General in US history, being just an decent president is what it is.

But he didn't. The only slave he was given by marriage, he freed.
