The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant is an autobiography from the 18th president of the United States and was published by Mark Twain shortly after Grant's death in 1885. His memoirs were written in an attempt to take care of his family after his passing, which he did very well.

Ulysses S. Grant remains one of the giants in American history, revered and respected by his contemporaries, but viewed ever after as one of the country's most controversial figures. He graduated from West Point in 1843 and went on to have a successful military career before becoming the 18th President of the United States for two terms. These grand accomplishments stand in stark contrast with his failures. He became an alcoholic, a failed businessman, and the administration during his presidency is regarded as one of the most corrupt in U.S. history.

In the 19th century, one of the surest ways to rise to prominence in American society was to be a war hero, like Andrew Jackson and William Henry Harrison.
