In a remarkable exchange of letters, disgraced Union general, Fitz-John Porter, appeals to Ulysses S. Grant for assistance in clearing his name. The problem is, Grant believed in Porter's guilt and had said so in writing and conversation with others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwenty-five years after his arrest, conviction, and dismissal from the army, Fitz-John Porter is still at it, writing to Grant along with congressmen and anyone who might be able to help.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1879, a commission was convened to hear the facts. These letters tell the final outcome.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEvery memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBe sure to LOOK INSIDE by clicking the cover above or download a sample.","brand":"Big Byte Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47080539848944,"sku":"2940151421133","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940151421133_p0.jpg?v=1764010136","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940151421133","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
