Personal Memoirs Of Ulysses S. Grant

Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant - Ulysses S. Grant Gotta blow the horn on this one. I even tried wearing lipstick while reading it, just to give it a bit more clarity and pizazz, but no go. I tried desperately to enjoy it but most of the time I was lost in its dense and swamplike paragraphs. Apologies to all the folks who consider this a masterpiece - I give up.
