Ulysses S. Grant (born Hiram Ulysses Grant; April 27, 1822 – July 23, 1885) was the 18th president of the United States (1869–1877) following his success as military commander in the American Civil War. Under Grant, the Union Army defeated the Confederate military and secession, the war ending with the surrender of Robert E. Lee's army at Appomattox Court House. As president, Grant led the Radical Republicans in their effort to eliminate vestiges of Confederate nationalism and slavery, protect African American citizenship, and pursued Reconstruction in the former Confederate states. In foreign policy, Grant sought to increase American trade and influence, while remaining at peace with the world. Although his Republican Party split in 1872 as reformers denounced him, Grant was easily reelected. During his second term the country's economy was devastated by the Panic of 1873, while investigations exposed corruption scandals in the administration. Although still below average, his reputation among scholars has significantly improved in recent years because of greater appreciation for his commitment to civil rights, moral courage in his prosecution of the Ku Klux Klan, and enforcement of voting rights.
There are abundant historical resources on Grant and his role during the Civil War and thereafter. However, there have been few historical scholarly studies on his presidency, and, until recently, they were mostly negative. Analysis of Grant's presidency by some modern scholars, including Grant biographers Jean Edward Smith (2001), H. W. Brands (2012), Ron Chernow (2017), and Charles W. Calhoun (2017), have generally been more positive about Grant's presidency. Encyclopedic presidential summary biographies of Grant rely heavily on secondary sources and tend to offer non-scholarly negative views of Grant. One bibliographical source recommends that, to obtain a more complete assessment of Grant and his presidency during Reconstruction, one read contemporary, primary, and scholarly accounts of Grant, his inaugural addresses, and his communications and annual messages to Congress. In May 2012, on the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Ulysses S. Grant Foundation, Mississippi State University was selected as the permanent location for Ulysses S. Grant's Presidential Library. Historian John Y. Simon edited Grant's letters into a 32-volume scholarly edition published by Southern Illinois University Press.
