Abstract | "This biography details the three years which saw Ulysses S. Grant's extraordinary rise from mediocre shop clerk to general-in-chief of the U.S. Army. Grant's most spectacular campaigns, including Vicksburg and Chattanooga, are discussed in depth. Other topics include Grant's personal qualities and background, his extraordinary good fortune and the general's informal and unorthodox command style"--Provided by publisher. |
