About this listen
In the eighth episode of our second 10-part special season on U.S. Presidents, we examine the life and legacy of Ulysses S. Grant, the Civil War general turned 18th president of the United States. Rising from obscurity, Grant led Union forces to victory, ensuring the survival of the nation. As president, he championed civil rights and supported the 15th Amendment, but his administration was overshadowed by corruption scandals. Grant’s story is one of triumph, perseverance, and complexity, with a legacy that historians continue to reassess today.
