Who accepted surrender from the british?

For all practical purpose, the general in charge of all US military affairs, Ulysses S. Grant accepted the surrender of Robert E. Lee, the general in charge of the Army of Northern Virginia. The surrender took place at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia on April 9, 1865. It was an unconditional surrender. It took almost a month before all Southern forces learned of the surrender. Lee refused to back ideas by some Southerners to wage a guerrilla war. So none were attempted.


How were US presidents US Grant and Franklin D. Roosevelt connected?

Reportedly, Franklin D. Roosevelt issued a statement in 1943 that indicated that the Axis Powers would need to agree to an unconditional surrender if WW 2 was ever to end. This disturbed many politicians and military commanders. They believed that when FDR used those terms, it would only lead to the Axis Powers to fight longer and harder in order to avoid an unconditional surrender.Roosevelt reportedly stated that he made the statement after thinking about the "unconditional surrender" edict made by Union General in Chief US Grant.
