ISBN:  9780674976290 (hc.) Alternate title:  Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant : the complete annotated edition Description:  xxviii, 784 pages ; 25 cm Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index Summary:  "President Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885) was one of the most esteemed individuals of the nineteenth century. His two-volume memoirs, sold door-to-door by former Union soldiers, have never gone out of print and were once as ubiquitous in American households as the Bible. Mark Twain, Gertrude Stein, Matthew Arnold, Henry James, and Edmund Wilson hailed these works as great literature, and presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush both credit Grant with influencing their own writing. This is the first comprehensively annotated edition of Grant's memoirs, fully representing the great military leader's thoughts on his life and times through the end of the Civil War and his invaluable perspective on battlefield decision making. An introduction contextualizes Grant's life and significance, and editorial commentary allows the president's voice and narrative to shine through. These selections enrich our understanding of the antebellum era, the Mexican War, and the Civil War. Grant provides insight into how rigorously these events tested America's democratic institutions and the cohesion of its social order"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Memoirs.
