About the Author John F.
Grant instills readers with a deeper understanding of the military legend\'s nuanced personal history and an appreciation for the late president\'s tragic and triumphant story.
From humble birth to tragic death, this new take on Ulysses S.
Not to overlook his military accomplishments, they devote time to the Study of Grant\'s war strategy and military career, beginning as early as his reluctant enrollment into West Point.
They highlight specific moments or relationships in Grant\'s life--including his connection to such key figures as Abraham Lincoln and Mark Twain--and elaborate on the more controversial elements of Grant\'s legacy, such as accusations about his drinking and corruption during the Grant presidency.
The authors present a thematic exploration of Grant, providing the necessary insight to appreciate Grant and correct the myths that for too long clouded his true importance.
Grant led Federal forces to victory in the Civil War, was the first modern American president, and authored his memoirs, which would eventually become one of the greatest books of nonfiction by an American author.
Grant, leading scholars provide an accessible introduction to Grant and his legacy.
