Description
The 2 volume set was purchased and owned by my grandfather who was a lawyer. The books were passed on to my parents who are now deceased. The reason why I am selling them is because of the educational significance of the books for someone else. This 2-volume set of "Personal Memoirs of Ulysses Grant" is a valuable addition to any collection of historical books. Written by the 18th President of the United States himself, the books offer a unique perspective into the American Civil War (1861-65). The leather-bound books are beautifully illustrated and were published by Charles L. Webster in New York in 1885, making them a rare find.The English-language books are an original 1st edition and are in excellent condition. They contain special attributes that add to their value, such as their detailed account of the Civil War and Grant's personal insight into the events that shaped American history. This item is a must-have for any history enthusiast and is a true gem in the world of antiquarian and collectible books.
