"Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant, Part 6." by Ulysses S. Grant is an autobiography written in 1884-1885. Racing against terminal throat cancer and financial ruin from a devastating Ponzi scheme, the former president and Civil War general chronicles his military career. With Mark Twain as publisher, the memoirs became a nineteenth-century bestseller through an unprecedented marketing campaign. This final volume captures Grant's candid reflections on war, written as a desperate effort to secure his family's future. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
