Jean Edward Smith

Grant (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Jean Smith has written a complete one-volume life of Ulysses S. Grant, the triumphant Union general and--in Smith's opinion--the underestimated president. He defends Grant's generalship, showing how his strategy brought victory to the Union, and offers a convincing reevaluation of Grant's two terms in office. Grant will stir controversy among historians and will be avidly read by anyone with an interest in the Civil War.
