The famous memoirs of the leader of the Union army during the American Civil War, including accounts of his boyhood and early career during the Mexican War. Mark Twain can be partially credited for the release of Grant's memoirs: Grant's health was ailing (he soon died of cancer), and Twain encouraged Grant to write them as a way to provide for his family after his death. The books were barely completed before Grant passed away, and were published posthumously. Don't forget to check out other great deals in our eBay Store!!
