Ever pondered how
Often Grant fell off wagon?
Grant, by Ron Chernow is a great book and a great biography and it is certainly very thorough. To the point where, if you went through the book and made a tally, you could probably come out with a pretty accurate number of how many times Ulysses Grant went on a bender during the Civil War.
Fascinating man. Great general. Way, way, way too trusting, which isn’t the best quality in a president.
