The press referred to Ulysses S. Grant as "Butcher Grant" due to his aggressive and relentless military tactics during the Civil War, particularly in battles like the Overland Campaign, where high casualties were incurred. Critics believed his willingness to sustain heavy losses in pursuit of victory showed a lack of concern for soldiers' lives. While this label captured Grant's strategy of attrition, it oversimplified his leadership and the complexities of wartime decisions. Ultimately, many historians argue that his approach was necessary to defeat the Confederacy and shorten the war.
