Sylvanus Cadwallader, Three Years With Grant, Signed by Ed., Benjamin Thomas, 1st ed

Description

Three Years With Grant, by Sylvanus Cadwallader, gives us a superb picture of Grant, both in the heat of battle and relaxing with friends. Living close to Grant from October 1862 until the end at Appomattox Cadwallader gives us bits and pieces of Grant, and then masterfully assembles a mosaic that gives a more nuanced portrait of Grant.

Edited and signed by masterful Lincoln biographer, Benjamin Thomas, this is the Wilderness Edition (the First Edition). It it a Civil War Book Club title.

Minor shelf and edgewear, evenly toned at top edge, price clipped dj, one pen notation in index at in mylar jacket; else very good+. Hard to find in a dust jacket that is this bright!
