The Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume 1, has an extended section, "About General Grant’s Memoirs"[1], describing Grant's financial particulars, at the end of his life. The "Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant"[2] cover his life through the end of the Civil War. It's a great read. [1]http://www.marktwainproject.org/xtf/view?docId=works/MTDP103...

The way I phrase it is "the fear of the thing is usually worse than the thing itself." In his Personal Memoirs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Memoirs_of_Ulysses_S....), Ulysses S. Grant wrote of how he learned this lesson one of the first times he led troops into battle in the Civil War: I received orders…
Ulysses S. Grant mentioned this technology in his personal memoirs, in the context of his childhood. "I kept the horse until he was four years old, when he went blind, and I sold him for twenty dollars. When I went to Maysville to school, in 1836, at the age of fourteen,…
…Douglas also played a crucial role by tending to Grant’s medical needs and provided comfort during moments of great pain. Grant finished the Memoirs three days before his death on July 23, 1885. When "The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant" were published later that year, they became an instant best-seller. The first paycheck to his widow, Julia Dent Grant, was for $200,000, providing long-term financial stability to…
《马克·吐温自传》第一卷里有一篇很长的章节叫《关于格兰特将军的回忆录》[1]，描述了格兰特临终时的财务状况。《尤利西斯·S·格兰特个人回忆录》[2]则记录了他直至南北战争结束的一生。非常值得一读。[1]http://www.marktwainproject.org/xtf/view?docId=works/MTDP103... [2]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Memoirs_of_Ulysses_S....

我的表述是“对事情的恐惧通常比事情本身更可怕”。尤利西斯·S·格兰特在他的个人回忆录（https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Memoirs_of_Ulysses_S....）中写道，他是在南北战争中最早几次带兵打仗时领悟到这一点的：我接到命令……

尤利西斯·S·格兰特在他的个人回忆录中提到过这项技术，是在讲到他童年的时候：“那匹马我养到了四岁，后来它瞎了，我就卖了二十美元。1836年我去梅斯维尔上学时，年方十四，……

……道格拉斯也发挥了关键作用，他照顾格兰特的医疗需求，并在极其痛苦的时刻给予慰藉。格兰特在1885年7月23日逝世前三天完成了这部回忆录。当《尤利西斯·S·格兰特个人回忆录》在同年晚些时候出版时，瞬间成了畅销书。给他遗孀茱莉亚·登特·格兰特的第一笔稿费就是20万美元，为其提供了长期的财务稳定保障……
