U.S. Grant

"What made Ulysses S. Grant tick? Perhaps the greatest general of the Civil War, Grant won impressive victories and established a brilliant military career. His single-minded approach to command was coupled with the ability to adapt to the type of military campaign the moment required." "In this new book, Michael B. Ballard provides an account of Grant's strategic and tactical concepts in the period from the outset of the Civil War to the battle of Chattanooga - a period in which U.S. Grant rose from a semi-disgraceful obscurity to the position of overall commander of all Union armies. Ballard carefully sifts through diaries and letters of Grant and his inner circle to try to get inside the man's mind and reveal why those early years of the war were formative in producing one of the Civil War's greatest generals."--Jacket.
