Grant

[Rob Wick]

Good grief, Bill. I can't see anything in your post that I can disagree with. That's got to be a sign of something.

While I don't have any real complaints about Chernow, I think there are better books out there. Jean Edward Smith (who recently died) wrote one of the best I've read. When Brooks Simpson brings out his long-awaited second volume it will rank him as one of Grant's best interpreters. I've got, but haven't read, William McFeeley's book. Sometime I want to read Captain Sam Grant.

Best
