" . . . 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.
