About the book

Drawing on Grant's writings and life experiences during his meteoric rise from tannery clerk to commanding general of over one million men, Cigars, Whiskey & Winning presents 250 concise, practical lessons for getting superior performance from the troops, whether military or corporate. An inspiring management treatise torn from the pages of Civil War history, this unique book goes beyond mere "how-to's" to reveal the character traits, core beliefs, and fundamental values that turn a manager into a leader, whether on the battlefield or in the boardroom. Cigars, Whiskey & Winning is a savvy blend of biography, history, and leadership wisdom that will appeal to aspiring business leaders and Civil War buffs alike.

First sentence: THE MAN WE KNOW AS ULYSSES S. GRANT WAS ACTUALLY named Hiram Ulysses Grant.
