Grant as a Soldier in Badeau's Reminiscence
General Badeau portrays Ulysses S. Grant at war’s end as unchanged in core traits from Mexico to Galena. Directness, steadiness, clear judgment, self reliance, and immutable resolve mark his leadership, with genius emerging in emergencies and calm under pressure even in the Wilderness. He valued duty over life, sacrificing for country and, when needed, for his troops, and his victory stemmed from invincible determination as much as skill.
