Hardback. Condizione: New. The moving story of Ulysses S. Grant's final battle, and the definitive account of the national memorial honoring him as one of America's most enduring heroes The final resting place of Ulysses S. Grant, the victorious general in the Civil War and the eighteenth president of the United States, is a col…ossal neoclassical tomb located in the most dynamic city in the country. It is larger than the final resting place of any other president or any other person in America. Since its creation, the popularity and condition of this monument, built to honor the man and what he represented to a grateful nation at the time of his death, a mere twenty years after the end of the Civil War, have reflected not only Grant's legacy in the public mind but also the state of New York City and of the Union.In this fascinating, deeply researched book, presidential historian Louis L. Picone recounts the full story. He begins with Grant's heroic final battle during the last year of his life, to complete his memoirs in order to secure his family's financial future while contending with painful, incurable cancer. Grant accomplished this just days before his death, and his memoirs, published by Mark Twain, became a bestseller. Accompanying his account with numerous period photographs, Picone narrates the national response to Grant's passing and how his tomb came to be: the intense competition to be the resting place for Grant's remains, the origins of the memorial and its design, the struggle to finance and build it over the course of twelve years, and the vicissitudes of its afterlife in the history of the nation up to recent times.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Ulysses's Odyssey is a triumph of research, drawing upon the extensive Papers of Ulysses S. Grant, accounts of fellow travelers, letters, diaries, historic newspapers, and many more sources. Picone reveals Grant's personality, core decency, and sense of humor, and also explores the trip's s…ignificance at the time and how it subsequently faded from public memory. Whether interested in American presidents, the Gilded Age, foreign policy, or an epic travel adventure, you'll want to read Ulysses's Odyssey. In May 1877, Ulysses S. Grant, newly departed from two terms in the White House, embarked on an extraordinary three-year journey that defined a pivotal moment in the Gilded Age. Driven by a lifelong passion for travel and unburdened by a fixed itinerary, Grant set out to explore the world, his wanderlust sustained by modest means. Louis L. Picone's Ulysses's Odyssey: Ulysses S. Grant's World Tour at the Dawn of American Empire masterfully chronicles this unprecedented adventure, illuminating its historical significance and Grant's enduring legacy. Grant's odyssey spanned continents, from Europe's capitals to uncharted destinations for an American president, including Egypt, the Holy Land, the Ottoman Empire, Russia, India, Siam, Saigon, China, and Japan. Welcomed by throngs and honored by monarchs-kings, queens, emperors, and heads of state-Grant immersed himself in local cultures. He scaled Mount Vesuvius, sailed the Nile, rode elephants in India, and strolled the streets of Sicily, where he was cautioned about the mafia. Throughout, his curiosity and humility shone, revealing the man behind the myth. In September 1879, thousands greeted Grant's return at San Francisco's wharf, heralding him as a national hero. His journey continued across the United States via the Transcontinental Railroad, culminating in Philadelphia's grandest reception, where his global voyage was celebrated with unparalleled fervor. His travels were not yet over. Weeks later he ventured south to Cuba, Mexico, and the Southern states, where former Confederate soldiers and the formerly enslaved alike cheered his presence. Returning to Illinois just before the 1880 Republican convention, Grant entered the presidential race for a third time, his global perspective newly sharpened. Contemporaries marveled, declaring, Nothing like this has ever been seen before in history! Louis Picone unearths Ulysses S. Grant's forgotten world tour, a journey that shaped America's rise as a global power. Drawing on Grant's personal papers, letters, diaries, and period newspapers, this meticulously researched narrative weaves adventure and diplomacy into a vibrant portrait of the Gilded Age. With sweeping prose, Ulysses's Odyssey captivates history buffs and adventure enthusiasts alike, offering fresh insights into Grant's legacy and the dawn of American empire. Essential reading, this grand tale restores a pivotal chapter to its rightful place in history. AUTHOR: Louis L. Picone is the best-selling and award-winning author of Grant's Tomb: The Epic Death of Ulysses S. Grant and the Making of an American Pantheon and The President Is Dead! The Extraordinary Stories of the Presidential Deaths, Final Days, Burials, and Beyond. Louis is the committee Chairman of the Grover Cleveland Presidential Library at his Birthplace in Caldwell, NJ. He holds a Master's in History and teaches at William Paterson University. Louis has spoken widely about the presidents, including the General Grant National Memorial, James A. Garfield National Historic Site, Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library, and the 2016 international conference "U.S. Presidents and Russian Rulers" at the Academy of Sciences in Moscow.
