William H. Underhill's Comments

I am not judging or critiquing her artistic talent as I have no background in her area. In fact I like what she has done with her logo. However, there are many positive nouns or adjectives that she could have chosen to accompany her logo, but she chose the pajorative “The Butcher”. If that is her perception of Ulysses Grant, she needs to know a bit more about our history.

For shame! Ms. Jannott should read history for herself and not rely on stereotypes or repeating what the uniformed have written about this great American. There are numerous biographies of Grant that she should read, biographies that refute this old canard that he willingly sacrificed his men. Without Grant we would not be the UNITED STATES. He won the war that freed millions of people from slavery and preserved this precious union.
If one considers oneself an artist, it behooves that person to know his or her subject before attempting to create something about him, wether it be a painting, a sculpture, or in this case a logo. Ms. Jannott should return to the drawing board. Shealso should visit Grant Cottage on Mt. McGregor, Wilton, NY, where Grant finished his Personal Memoirs before dying of throat cancer. She will learn who the man trully was.
