              <text>The result of decades of planning and effort, the &lt;a href="http://mallhistory.org/explorations/show/grant-memorial"&gt;Ulysses S. Grant Memorial&lt;/a&gt; honors the Civil War general and US President. The massive memorial features three sections: a large statue of Grant on his horse, a separate sculpture entitled Artillery on Grant's left, and a third entitled Cavalry Charge on Grant's right. By design, the statue of Grant faces exactly west, toward the &lt;a href="http://mallhistory.org/items/show/33"&gt;Lincoln Memorial&lt;/a&gt;, so that these two memorials flank the National Mall.</text>
