Book excerpt: Grant was the most famous person in America, considered by most citizens to be equal in stature to George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

Book Ulysses S  Grant

Download or read book Ulysses S Grant written by Marie Ellen Kelsey and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2005-09-30 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ulysses S. Grant: A Bibliography, Dr. Kelsey has created an invaluable resource for Grant scholars. The bibliography consists of twenty chapters covering Grant's early life, his careers both as soldier and as president, his associations with various individuals, his post-presidency activities, the role alcohol played in his life, his battle with throat cancer, and ultimately, his tragic death. What makes this book truly special is that Kelsey cites not only the usual books and journals but also a wide variety of nontraditional materials ranging from manuscripts to musical scores. Additionally, she has created a list of cited journals with OCLC numbers, making precise identification of old and obscure journals easy for researchers. Kelsey's sources are varied and multidimensional: she includes scholarly, popular, and ephemeral works to present the fullest possible picture of the legendary president. Kelsey also lists many obscure sources on not only Grant but also his associates, including all his cabinet members. The work includes citations about Julia Dent Grant, other Grant family members, Grant's cabinet members, John Rawlins, William Tecumseh Sherman, Ely Parker, Abraham Lincoln. Libraries of all types could benefit from including this resource in the reference collection. The text might get the most use in historical society libraries, as well as in the libraries of colleges and universities. Public libraries and private individuals interested in Grant and the Civil War would also appreciate the book's comprehensive nature.

Book Ulysses S  Grant

Download or read book Ulysses S Grant written by David L. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An occasional publication of the Ulysses S. Grant Association that serves to supplement The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant by providing both interpretations of Grant and source material impossible or inappropriate to include in the volumes. This volume also provides an ap­propriate vehicle for the Association editors to use the recently developed computer-assisted text-processing methods. The entire manuscript was stored and edited on magnetic computer tape at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. Mne­monic coding of the final tape was ac­complished with definitions developed by Southern Illinois University Press, reducing the typesetter's function to making minor adjustments in his programs to accept the tape. These six articles and documents cover a wide range of topics. Richard N. Current and E. B. Long call for a reappraisal of Grant, with Current examining Grant's role as a leader of a nation only nominally at peace and Long focusing on the controversies sur­rounding his generalship. Charles G. Elling­ton traces Grant's journey across the Isthmus of Panama in 1852, which left him with a life­long desire to build a transcontinental canal. Horatio E. Wirtz examines Grant's little-known role as a mediator in a dispute be­tween China and Japan over the Ryukyu Islands. John M. Hoffman presents an un­published account of the battle of Chat­tanooga from the journal of Quartermaster General M. C. Meigs. David L. Wilson and John Y. Simon make available a memoir by Grant's personal cipher clerk and telegra­pher, Samuel H. Beckwith.

Book The Annotated Memoirs of Ulysses S  Grant  The Annotated Books

Download or read book The Annotated Memoirs of Ulysses S Grant The Annotated Books written by Ulysses S. Grant and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 997 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With kaleidoscopic, trenchant, path-breaking insights, Elizabeth D. Samet has produced the most ambitious edition of Ulysses Grant’s Memoirs yet published. One hundred and thirty-three years after its 1885 publication by Mark Twain, Elizabeth Samet has annotated this lavish edition of Grant’s landmark memoir, and expands the Civil War backdrop against which this monumental American life is typically read. No previous edition combines such a sweep of historical and cultural contexts with the literary authority that Samet, an English professor obsessed with Grant for decades, brings to the table. Whether exploring novels Grant read at West Point or presenting majestic images culled from archives, Samet curates a richly annotated, highly collectible edition that will fascinate Civil War buffs. The edition also breaks new ground in its attack on the “Lost Cause” revisionism that still distorts our national conversation about the legacy of the Civil War. Never has Grant’s transformation from tanner’s son to military leader been more insightfully and passionately explained than in this timely edition, appearing on the 150th anniversary of Grant’s 1868 presidential election.
