1.The Last Full MeasureThe Last Full Measure
from Ballantine Books
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
I loved The Killer Angelsand didn't really care for the idea of the son adding to it with sequels and prequels and since then a whole series of historical fiction.
This book has far fewer characters and it is hard not to think that the views they express are tailored by history and 20-20... more info

from Simon & Schuster
Price: $14.96

Customer Review:
Jean Edward Smith has written an outstanding biography of Ulysses S. Grant, one of the more complex heroes of American history.

from Library of America
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:
Well written history is a rare treat, and rarer still is a history by one who lived through it. Grant writes engagingly and humorously and with great humility for a man who achieved so much.

6.Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. GrantPersonal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant
from Cosimo Classics
Price: $17.96

Customer Review:
Grant finished this lengthy memoir on the eve of his death from throat cancer. Impoverished at the time, the ex-President made his wife rich from the proceeds. Simple, straightforward, earnest narrative, sometimes ironic, sometimes colorful, always unpretentious. Inevitably self-justifying, but... more info

from Prentice Hall Press
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
This book is a quick read. I particularly enjoyed the author's focus on Grant's ability to react, adjust and adapt. Staying away from Grant's presidency was a good idea until the end. Even then, the author contrasts Grant's leadership style as a General to President and why he failed (at least... more info

Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Consider this entry as a review of Gordon C. Rhea's four books (The Battle of the Wilderness, The Battle for Spotsylvania and the Road to Yellow Tavern, To the North Anna River, Cold Harbor) as a single narrative.
This is a prodigious work. As the other reviewers point out each book is a stand... more info

Customer Review:
Continuing the counter-factual history of the Civil War that they started with Gettysburg, Newt Gingrich and William Forstchen came up with another literary hit out of the park with the second volume of their trilogy, Grant Comes East.
