What flaws did Ulysses S. Grant have?

Answer 1

A fighter, with an instinct for pursuing and destroying the enemy.

A good planner, steady, unflappable, cool in battle.

Modest and unassuming - when he arrived in Washington to receive his commission as General-in-Chief, he wondered who the crowds were cheering for. He didn't realise it was for him.

Also, surprisingly creative for such a plain, ordinary type - figuring out how to get his troops across the Mississippi at Vicksburg, and in the end writing a brilliant book of memoirs when he was broke and dying.

Answer 2

He was not very strong even though he was in the army. And he was too agreeable for his own good.

Answer 3

he was a good general and a good husband but wasnt good at being a president. he had alot of determination of winning but could deal with losses.

Answer 4

Grant had never had any experience in civilian government and he tended to be too trusting of the people he thought were his friends.

Answer 5
