RARE FIRST EDITION IN A VERY PLEASING STATE OF PRESERVATION. VERY RARE IN THIS FORMAT CONDITION AND DELUXE BINDING STATE. ‘THE FINEST MEMOIRS OF WAR EVER PENNED’. An important historical memoir of the Civil War arguably the most important and the best thing that Grant ever wrote. General Norman Schwartzkopf has recently called this the finest memoir of war experiences that has ever been penned. Collectible copies of these books are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Copies in this binding especially so. The earliest days of the Civil War were a hard lesson in hubris for the Union Army. After the appointment of Grant to overall command of the Union forces the war would quickly turn to their favor. Probably the most important book on the American Civil War and in many respects a masterpiece of American literature. David Eicher"s useful summary includes this fine judgment: "Grant’s MEMOIRS comprise one of the most valuable writings by a military commander in history . . . The work is genuinely that of the commander. As such it is valuable in its scope its plain and clear analysis and language and its broad conclusions about the conduct of the war. "In the years following the war Grant would move into the political arena even against his best judgment and would with great public acclaim be elected President of United States for two full terms.

1981réf. 509897Houghton Mifflin 1981. First Edition. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. FINE/NEAR FINE. SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Elytis on half-title 'For Stathis and Ralph' in GREEK. First English Edition First Printing. 74pp. Orange speckled paper over boards with blue-gilt lettering to front cover backed in blue finished cloth with silver-gilt spine lettering red endpapers. An exceedingly clean and crisp copy. Dust jacket has some trivial rubbing to head and tail of spine entirely crisp and bright otherwise. Ralph Sylvester and Stathis Orphanos were publishers of the fine-press publishing company 'Sylvester & Orphanos.' Stathis was a noted photographer and born of Greek parents maintaining a residence on the island of Samos throughout his life. First published in Greece in 1978 the year before Elytis was awarded the Nobel Prize Maria Nefeli was a stark departure from the earlier work that had won him renown as the greatest Greek poet of his generation. Its novelty gave many early readers pause but 'despite the initial reservations voiced by some critics Maria Nefeli came to be regarded as the summa of Elytis's later writings.' Poetry Foundation.
