Excerpt from A New, Original and Authentic Record of the Life and Deeds of General U. S. Grant: Containing a Full History of His Early Life, His Record as a Student at the West Point Military Academy, His Gallantry in the Mexican War, His Honorable Career as a Business Man in St. Louis and Galena

In this book each side to the conflict has freely hon ored his drafts for information. The blue and the grey tell their parallel stories in its pages. In this respect it will be unique in war history. In this respect, too, it will be a curious illustration of the comity now existing between those so lately and so bitterly in arms against each other - a comity which the funeral scenes at the grave of the great commander emphasized.
