Shortly before his Ulysses S Grant’s presidency began, John SC Abbott published a biographical sketch of the recent Civil War hero and general. Perhaps as part of raising interest in his presidential campaign, Abbott wrote what would become one of the best accounts of Grant’s military career and his significant victories in the Civil War. Other noteworthy topics include:

• The Battle of Shiloh
• Battle of Vicksburg
• Grant at Missionary Ridge
• Notes on Abraham Lincoln’s second Inauguration
• Grant’s perspective on Sherman’s March

 

Note the detailed maps throughout this volume and full-page engravings. This particular issue has a gold-embossed signature of Grant on the front cover.
