When Grant was appointed General-in-Chief in March 1864, he appointed Phil Sheridan to clear the Confederates out of the Shenandoah Valley and destroy the farms in this prime agricultural area.
Near the end of the war, he was summoned down to the Petersburg area to help finish-off Lee. He controversially sacked General G.K. Warren for slow, reluctant response to his orders in the last day or two before the surrender. Some said this was unnecessary at such a late stage, when nothing was at stake. But there was bad blood between the two officers.
