One was the greatest generals of his time. The other proved to be one of this country’s greatest writers. This session spins the tale of their connection and friendship. Given the backdrop of Grant’s final days, this is a story of inspiration and desperation, of genius and ruin. Join us as we capture a powerful moment in the lives of two influential Americans and the age they represented.
