5.0 out of 5 stars good source for civil war history buffs, June 3, 2008
This review is from: The Autobiography of General Ulysses S Grant: Memoirs of the Civil War (Paperback)
General Grant's firsthand accounts of the campaigns that won the Civil War. Grant discusses his strategy and tactics, accompanied by maps and detailed descriptions of his actions. An indispensable source for anyone who is interested in the history of the Civil War.

EDIT: One of the reviewers incorrectly states that this book is just one volume of the two-volume set. It's not--it contains much of volume 1 and almost all of volume 2, but only covers the period of the Civil War. This edition does not have the first several chapters of Grant's two-volume autobiography describing his life before the Civil War, or the last few chapters describing his life after the war. It contains the complete text from both volumes covering the period from Fort Sumter to Appomattox.

1.0 out of 5 stars will not buy, January 4, 2012
This review is from: The Autobiography of General Ulysses S Grant: Memoirs of the Civil War (Paperback)
Since buying the Kindle I have again and again discovered that the e-book (let alone the printed one as this) of classics is abridged or in terrible format. What is worse is that I only find out about it after reading the reviews. Specifically this book, books by Charles Darwin, poetry which has not been given returns between line. Bummer

ps - reviewers do a good job overall. Thanks
