Abstract
Abstract On April 9, 1865, General Robert E. Lee, commander of the Army of the Confederate States of America, surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant of the United States Army at the courthouse in Appomattox, Virginia. The U.S. Civil War, which had cost more than six hundred thousand lives, was over. The defeat of the South’s attempt to secede had left the United States intact as a continental nation-state with enormous industrial and military potential.
