Publisher's Summary
Of the memoirs of his unlikely friend, Ulysses S. Grant, Mark Twain wrote, "The fact remains and cannot be dislodged that General Grant's book is a great, unique and unapproachable literary masterpiece... [The] style is at least flawless, and no man can improve upon it." Such is the general consensus surrounding this essential American tome, which was finished just days before Grant’s death and focuses on his Civil War years.
Performed in a mature, elegant voice and without flair by Peter Johnson - himself a Grant scholar, writer, and lauded audiobook performer - these poignant and often sad memoirs are the final exertions of a dying warrior whose hard-won conclusion rings a note of optimism that someday Federals and Confederates may live together in peace. Have we?
