The Generals

Lee and Grant, the two most celebrated generals in American history, adversaries whose lives were eternally bound together by the war that divided them, are here made vivid in all their paradoxical differences and likenesses. This full-scale, engrossing dual biography follows the two men from their childhoods through West Point, the Army, the Mexican War, the 1850s -- when Lee pursued his military calling at a series of Army outposts and Grant became a clerk in his father's leather-goods store -- and through the years of the Civil War. - Jacket flap.
