Used. Hardcover. If you prefer your history straight from the tactical saddle, this strategic two-fer pairs Ulysses S. Grant’s remarkably lucid memoirs with Armistead Long’s definitive portrait of Robert E. Lee in action. It is a rare battlefield briefing where Union wit meets Confederate command, heavily illustrated with over four hundred period drawings and photographs that bring the smoke of combat into sharp focus. Grant writes with surprising humor while Lee’s inner workings are laid bare by a loyal lieutenant, offering readers a brilliant, dual-perspective march through America’s bloodiest chapter.
