註釋
Among the autobiographies of generals and statesmen, the Personal Memoirs of U.S. Grant ranks with the greatest. Written as Grant was dying of cancer, it tells the straightforward story of his boyhood in Ohio, graduation from West Point, and the grimy military campaigns in the West and Mexico that ended with his resignation, disgrace and a return to Galena where he ran the family store. It then moves on to the rebellion that broke the Union and recast Grant's fortune and his rise through the Union Army. Grant the writer assess himself and the events that forged his character.
