Octavo, original cloth. From the library of Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer David Herbert Donald with three drafts of a review of the book by Donald's mentor and the director of his dissertation at the University of Illinois, John Randall, laid in.; one with hand-written annotations. American historian David Herbert Donald is best known for his 1995 biography of Abraham Lincoln. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Biography two times for his biographies of Charles Sumner and Thomas Wolfe. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Jacket design by Lester Peterson. An exceptional example with noted provenance. Captain Sam Grant is the story from Grant's birth in a small village on the Ohio frontier to that triumphant day in 1861 when an inconspicuous and seemingly defeated man turned at bay against ill fortune and took the first steps in his comeback as a man and as a soldier.
