If the War was about slavery then why did Grant continue to own them after that War?


Grant owned a slave he freed in 1859. Not sure where you are getting your information from.

I'm pretty sure he is talking about Grants wife's slaves. I think they were freed at the end of the war. Sherman was reported to own slaves after the war.
