Whiskey & Winning: Leadership Lessons from Ulysses S. Grant
by Al Kaltman
"Ulysses S. Grant was a perceptive and surprisingly modern manager,"
writes Al Kaltman. "A pragmatist who learned from his own and others' successes
and failures, he brought new dimensions to strategic planning. He was adept
at seizing and exploiting opportunities as they presented themselves, and
he boldly shattered paradigms long before the term paradigm had made its
way into the management jargon." Kaltman uses Grant's military career,
beginning with his enrollment at West Point through his early successes
in the Civil War to his eventual command of the entire Union Army, to illustrate
250 basic principles of business success, from "Bureaucrats do the dumbest
things" to "You can't stop the clock." In an afterword, Kaltman considers
how President Grant failed to live up to the principles of teamwork and
planning that led General Grant to victory, with a resultant career as
chief executive whose legacy has been less than stellar. Amazon.com

Grant
by Jean Edward Smith
Recent history has been kinder to Grant than were the chroniclers of
his day, not only for his undoubted abilities as a military leader, but
also for his conduct as a president who sought to rebuild a shattered nation.
Jean Edward Smith, the author of fine biographies of John Marshall and
Lucius D. Clay, offers compelling reasons to accept this program of revision,
while acknowledging the shortcomings of Grant's administration. Surely
and thoughtfully written, this sprawling but swiftly moving book stands
as a true hallmark in the literature that is devoted to Grant. --Gregory
