Lee was the greatest general this country ever produced. Grant was a drunk.
Grant turned the tide of the war, won many battles and ultimately the war itself. All while schnockered.
I'd say that's pretty great.

Y’know, given the level of alcohol consumption in that era, Grant might have only been a little above normal.
