A lot of people have lauded Grant’s Memoirs, and rightfully so, and perhaps that is why Sherman’s Memoirs are overlooked. They make for a fascinating read.

Have read both. I think General Sherman’s memoirs are a little more intellectual than Grant’s. He devotes more time to his thoughts and motivations.

I've read Grant's excellent memoires and have Sherman's on the shelf. I really need to get around to reading them.
