“In this 1864 painting by Henry Alexander Rogden, General Grant commands the Army of the Potomac in the Battle of the Wilderness in northern Virginia. This was the height of Grant’s soldiering career. Earlier, between 1853 and 1854, he had been stationed at Fort Humboldt. Grant was not impressed by the assignment, finding the native peoples peaceful and camp life dull. Jerry Rohde presents lesser-known details on California’s Indian genocide here in “General Grant, Camp Grant, and General Order No. 100.””
