The Personal Memoirs of Julia Dent Grant, 1826-1902, edited, with notes and foreword by John Y. Simon; with introduction by Bruce Catton.

Mrs. Grant's memoirs were ghostwritten, although they are supposed to be based on her reminiscences. They also contain a number of errors, like on the question of slave ownership.

She thought she owned slaves, but she was mistaken? You get more entertaining as you go along.
