Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee faced each other primarily during the American Civil War. Grant did not lose any major battles against Lee after the Overland Campaign began in 1864, ultimately leading to Lee's surrender at Appomattox Court House in April 1865. However, earlier in the war, Grant had faced defeats at battles such as the Battle of Cold Harbor and the Battle of the Wilderness, but these were part of larger campaigns rather than direct one-on-one encounters. Overall, Grant's strategic approach ultimately outlasted Lee's, leading to the Confederacy's defeat.
