Drawn from the 1861-1865 section of a photographic history of the war, this page places Ulysses S. Grant within the conflict that made his reputation. Grant rose from a little-known Illinois officer to commanding general of the Union armies, winning key victories at Vicksburg and Chattanooga before taking overall command in 1864. Compiled war histories like this one combined wartime photographs with later editing, so the image reflects both the original camera work and the choices of the publication. Grant's wartime fame carried him to the presidency, which he won in 1868.
