1.GrantGrant
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. Grant's complexity does not stem from his own actions, but from the fact that his career as a general is considered such a success while his presidency has always been... more info

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. That he wrote this in the throes of cancer, finishing it on death's door and yet has no sence of savig... more info

4.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

5.Cigars, Whiskey and Winning: Leadership Lessons from General Ulysses S. GrantCigars, Whiskey and Winning: Leadership Lessons from General Ulysses S. Grant
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

from Times Books
Price: $13.60

Customer Review:
Ulysses S. Grant (born Hiram Ulysses Grant, but there's a story there, as summarized in this work) was to ascend to the highest ranks in the hearts of his countrymen--from commanding general of the Union forces to President of the United States.
His rise to such positions seemed most unlikely... more info

from Modern Library
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
Written by the dying hand of one of the chosen men of his time. For any scholar of Grant, Civil War or Military History, these readings are a must. Grant's military genius was without equal. Had his superiors, early on, had his keen foresight, the Civil War could have ended a year or two earlier.... more info

from Eminent Lives

Customer Review:
Factually deficient. Some errors have been cited in earlier reviews here on Amazon. I will only point out that Korda repeatedly referred to Gen. McClellan as Gen. Mckennen. It gives one no confidence if the author cannot even remember the correct name of such a prominent person. Oddly, Korda seems... more info
