Description
Ulysses S. Grant's autobiography recounts the campaigns and battles in which he participated during the Mexican-American War and the American Civil War. Omitting detailed discussion of his childhood and presidency, Grant focuses most of his attention on his military career. This is a straight-forward, clearly-written memoir by one of the men responsible for the Union Army's victory.
