Explanation:

Ulysses S. Grant, born Hiram Ulysses Grant, (April 27, 1822 - July 23, 1885) was the commanding general of the United States Army at the end of the Civil War (between 1864 and 1865) and the 18th. º President of the United States (1869-1877). As commanding general, he worked closely with President Abraham Lincoln leading the Union Army until victory over the Confederate side. With the support of Congress, he implemented Reconstruction, often at odds with President Andrew Johnson. Elected twice as president, he led the Republicans in their effort to eradicate the vestiges of Confederate nationalism and slavery, protected African-American citizenship and fostered economic prosperity. Although the eight years of his presidency have been criticized at times for numerous scandals in the administration and for his inability to alleviate the economic depression after the Panic of 1873, he is recognized as a president who governed relatively well in his historical context and who pursued the Justice for all.

In 1880 Grant was not successful in obtaining the republican candidacy for a third presidential term. Struck by several financial setbacks and suffering from terminal laryngeal cancer, he wrote his memoirs, which would be a huge financial and critical success. His death in 1885 sparked a wave of national unity.
