General Ulysses S. Grant was initially late to the Battle of Shiloh, which took place on April 6-7, 1862. He was not present at the start of the battle on April 6, as he was at his headquarters preparing for the upcoming engagement. His forces were caught off guard by a surprise attack from Confederate troops led by General Albert Sidney Johnston. Grant's late arrival contributed to the initial difficulties faced by Union forces during the battle.
