I mentioned earlier in the thread that I spoke with a CW author. One point that I pressed him on was that I had read that Grant had come forward to observe the battle and had declined to intervene and avoid the developing disaster because of "chain of command". He corrected me and said that Meade had been there, not Grant and that he did take the opportunity to intervene and turn defeat into victory.
