Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant, Part 6.
by Ulysses S. (Ulysses Simpson) Grant
"Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant, Part 6." by Ulysses S. Grant is an autobiography written in 1884-1885. Racing against terminal throat cancer and financial ruin from a devastating Ponzi scheme, the former president and Civil War general chronicles his military career. With Mark Twain as publisher, the memoirs became a nineteenth-century bestseller through an unprecedented marketing campaign. This final volume captures Grant's candid reflections on war, written as a desperate effort to secure his family's future.
