Contrast of Grant & Lee
This is an excerpt from the paper...
The depiction of Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee by Bruce Catton (1956, p. 225) is one the author maintains represents ôàcomplete contrast, representing two diametrically opposed elements in American life.ö Lee, the landed tidewater aristocrat represented old world forms and traditions that maintained the establishment of a privileged class was good for all society. Grant, the up-from-the-bootstraps son of a tanner from the Allegheny mountains, represented the rising tendency toward democracy, equality, and the rise of industry and urban landscapes. Nevertheless, both men had much in common that, ultimately, during their meeting at Appomattox, paved the way for the healing and evolution of a new and united nation.
