Ulysses S. Grant

Ulysses S. Grant, (April 27, 1822 – July 23, 1885) born Hiram Ulysses Grant, was an American soldier and politician. Prior his election as the 18th President of the United States, Grant was the Commanding General of the United States Army during the American Civil War.

General Grant worked closely with President Abraham Lincoln to lead the Union Army to victory over the Confederacy in the American Civil War. He implemented Congressional Reconstruction, often at odds with Lincoln's successor, Andrew Johnson. Twice elected president, Grant led the Republicans in their effort to remove the vestiges of Confederate nationalism and slavery, protect African-American citizenship, and support economic prosperity nationwide.

During the Civil War, the Assassin Brotherhood trusted Grant with a Piece of Eden, one of the prongs of the Trident of Eden, hoping that the General would use its powers to put an end to the war and eventually bring the country together. Grant succeded and kept the artifact until his death in his cottage of Mount McGregor, where he hide it.
