Grants Memoirs yet. Publisher Description Originally published in 1885 by Mark Twain, Ulysses S. Grants landmark memoir has been annotated by Elizabeth Samet in this lavish edition. No previous edition combines such a sweep of historical and cultural contexts with the literary authority that Samet, obsessed with Grant for decades, brings to the table.
