chernow’s writing is more cinematic and exciting. when grant writes about himself he’s humble, and almost understated. but the memoirs are incredibly gripping. prose reminds me of hemingway somewhat.

Grant is just ok- read the same series’s books for Lincoln and Sherman- those are amazing. Lincoln’s Lyceum speech and Sherman on war are spectacular. http://www.abrahamlincolnonline.org/lincoln/speeches/lyceum.htm …
