Personal Memoirs Of U. S. Grant Part 2 Of 2

From his boyhood in Ohio to his graduation from West Point, and then through detailed accounts of his service in the Mexican-American War, the Civil War, and his presidency, Grant gives a full report of his life and career in this remarkable firsthand account. Completed in the last year of his life, 1885, as Grant battled throat cancer and poverty, the “Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant” was published by Mark Twain shortly after Grant’s death. Instantly popular and praised by admirers, critics, and people throughout the country, this autobiography was both a critical and financial success. Grant was recognized both for the clarity and succinctness of his writing. The royalties of the work provided for his family, firmly reestablishing their financial security. A model of autobiography to this day, the “Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant” is a exceptional work of literature, reflecting a man’s ultimate concern for the welfare of his country throughout his life. This edition collects both volumes of Grant’s memoirs into a single edition printed on premium acid-free paper.

There are but few important events in the affairs of men brought about by their own choice. Although frequently urged by friends to write my memoirs I had determined never to do so, nor to write anything for publication. At the age of nearly sixty-two I received an injury from a fall, which confined me closely to the house while it did not apparently affect my general health. This made study a pleasant pastime. Shortly after, the rascality of a business partner developed itself by the announcement of a failure. This was followed soon after by universal depression of all securities, which seemed to threaten the extinction of a good part of the income still retained, and for which I am indebted to the kindly act of friends. At this juncture the editor of the Century Magazine asked me to write a few articles for him. I consented for the money it gave me; for at that moment I was living upon borrowed money. The work I found congenial, and I determined to continue it. The event is an important one for me, for good or evil; I hope for the former.
