Grant Silent General of the Civil War Revealed in Remembrance
A deserter from the Mexican War and former Pacific POW, Alpeor B Grant is recalled as a quiet yet formidable figure. The essayist contrasts his reserve with his incisive power to harm through speech, recounting meetings, wartime hardship talk, and a belief that Grant belonged to a lineage of great souls. The piece notes Grant’s wartime service, political context, and a May 1841- era memory of recognizing him as a man of substance, despite failures to gain wealth.
