Publisher's Summary

In some ways, everything in our world seems out of control, but turmoil has been a part of the evolution of our nation since its founding. America has endured extremely dark periods in its history—the Revolution, World War II, and perhaps the darkest of all, the Civil War.

But in darkness, leaders emerge to shine a light of hope to guide people. During the American Civil War, Ulysses S. Grant emerged to guide the nation to victory, then to the beginnings of reconciliation.

As Lieutenant General, he defeated the rebellion. As Chief of the Army, he provided a stabilizing presence during the Andrew Johnson impeachment. As a Presidential candidate, he spoke for every American. But there is one story of Grant's heroism that is rarely told.

Perhaps the most dramatic season in Grant's life came in his final two years. After leaving the White House, he lost all his money. Then, a few months later he received the devastating news that he was dying of throat cancer. Dr. Craig von Buseck uncovers the inspiring and intimate side of this historical legend while providing an in-depth look at the last two years of Grant's life.

Victor! offers a unique narrative approach to hear the voice of a dying General Grant as he writes his memoirs and takes listeners back in time to key turning points in the War Between the States.
