Grant and Lee Résumé

Grant and Lee: A Study in Personality and Generalship J.F.C. Fuller

" . . . cuts squarely across the accepted tradition . . . Fuller examines these two great soldiers from a fresh viewpoint and refuses to let himself be bound by tradition." -New York Times Book Review

" . . . readable, instructive, stimulating, and . . . controversial as when first published." -Military Review

First published fifty years ago, Fuller's study of Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee remains one of his most brilliant and durable works, Grant and Lee is a compelling study not only of the two men, but also of the nature of leadership and command in wartime.
