Sarah Bodaly's Reviews > Grant and Sherman: The Friendship That Won the Civil War

I found this to be an interesting narrative about two men who took their own personalities and struggles and used their strengths, together at times, to impact the outcome of the Civil War, as well as both the preceding and following years.
Grant was more of a modest and reluctant politician, a struggling farmer, and a closet drinker in the months of service separated from his family. Sherman was a man who bounced from one business venture to the next, and was at times considered to be a lunatic. Yet both men found in the other a "brother," for the needed time and place for each other and for America.
