Grant Late in the administration of Andrew Johnson, Gen. Ulysses S. Grant quarreled with the President and aligned himself with the Radical Republicans. He was, as the symbol of Union victory during the Civil War, their logical candidate for President in 1868. When he was elected, the American people hoped for an end to turmoil. Grant provided neither vigor nor reform. Looking to Congress for direction, he seemed bewildered. One visitor to the White House noted "a puzzled pathos, as of a man with a problem before him of which he does not understand the terms." Born in 1822, Grant was the son of an Ohio tanner. He went to West Point rather against his will and graduated in the middle of his class. In the Mexican War he fought under Gen. Zachary Taylor. President Bush Biography Vice President Cheney Biography Laura Bush Biography Lynne Cheney Biography At the outbreak of the Civil War, Grant was working in his father's leather store in Galena, Illinois. He was appointed by the Governor to command an unruly volunteer regiment. Grant whipped it into shape and by September 1861 he had risen to the rank of brigadier general of volunteers.

Bush Behind the Scenes: Some Timeline Riddles When creating the American Presidents Timeline , C-SPAN drew on a variety of sources. However, given the the limitations of space and design on the Timeline, we had to make several difficult choices: what information to present, and what to exclude; how to describe events; and where to place images.

So the Timeline is meant to be a starting point for learning, not the “final word.” While creating this resource, we had to tackle some riddles, and question and interpret history. We hope it inspires you to do the same. We Want to Hear Your Timeline Riddles We invite YOU to raise and investigate your own questions about the Timeline, and
