In this new biography of General Ulysses S. Grant, acclaimed Civil
War historian, Edward G. Longacre, examines Grant's early life and
his military career for insights into his great battlefield
successes as well as his personal misfortunes. Longacre
concentrates on Grant's boyhood and early married life; his moral,
ethical, and religious views; his troubled military career; his
strained relationships with wartime superiors; and, especially, his
weakness for alcohol, which exerted a major influence on both his
military and civilian careers. Longacre, to a degree that no other
historian has done before, investigates Grant's alcoholism in light
of his devout religious affiliations, and the role these sometimes
conflicting forces had on his military career and conduct.
Longacre's conclusions present a new and surprising perspective on
the ever-fascinating life of General Grant.
