The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant is an autobiography
of American President Ulysses S. Grant, focused mainly on the general's actions
during the American Civil War. Written as Grant was dying of throat cancer in
1885, the two-volume set was published by Mark Twain shortly after Grant's
death. The memoirs were a financial and critical success and are still praised
for their high literary qualities.
