Sinossi

Excerpt from The New Administration: Containing Complete and Authentic Biographies of Grant and His Cabinet

His ambition inclined him to dislike his father's trade, and to crave a better education than the country-schools in his vicinity afforded. In order to gratify this wish, his father procured for him an appointment to a cadetship at West Point. He entered the Academy in 1839, and remained there four years.

He became a lieutenant of infantry in the regular army of the United States, in July, 1843.
