Lincoln, Grant, and the 1864 Election
LINCOLN, GRANT, AND THE 1864 ELECTION
|
The last year of the Civil War brings to mind a turn in fortunes for the Union and for the retreating Confederate army - of Lincoln planning for reconstruction as General Grant finishes the war by crushing Lee's rag-tag force. What adds an even more fascinating twist to the chain of events is that a national presidential election was held in the midst of Civil War.
