Synopsis

"General Grant is emphatically a man, not of words, but of deeds. His eloquence is the

eloquence of action. He will be renowned, through all future time, for the achievements

which he has performed-achievements which, every impartial student of history will declare, give him position among the ablest men the world has known." -John S.C. Abbott, Preface, 1868
