Grant pursued a tragic war to its very end. But his final battle starts in 1880, when he loses his race to become the first U.S. President to serve three terms, goes bankrupt, and begins a fight against cancer that will prove to be his greatest challenge. Through journalist Nicholas Trist, readers follow Grant's journey-and along the way meet Grant's sworn enemy Henry Adams and Adams's doomed wife, Clover, the old soldiers Sherman and Sheridan, and the always clever, always scheming Mark Twain. Revealed here are not only the penetrating secrets of our eighteenth president, but the intimate power-brokering that led to the end of Grant's career, setting the stage for a new era in American history-one defined by politics, not warfare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Serious, intricate … gripping … Byrd is an expert at linking the products of his own imagination with historical facts.\"\u003c\/em\u003e-\u003cstrong\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recorded Books, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49394561777968,"sku":"ZEe0ya","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/e0ya-Square-cover.jpg?v=1773693821","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-e0ya","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
