Summary:
Ulysses S. Grant was the general of the Union army who led the North to victory in the Civil War. But at one time, he wasn't thought to be fit to serve in the military at all! Robert E. Lee has a similarly confounding story: he was asked to command the Union army! This book offers a look at the two looming personalities that fought each other for the future of a nation. Biographical information and historical facts are intertwined in this engaging volume, which also features a timeline of the war and historical images to complement the text.
