Hunter Esq with compliments of A Badeau Xmas 1885." In very good. Rare signed by Badeau. Military History of Ulysses S. Grant by Union Brigadier General Adam Badeau—Grant’s aide-de-camp close associate and later literary collaborator—constitutes a substantial posthumous extension of Grant’s own narrative.

Although Grant’s Personal Memoirs 1885–1886 were completed shortly before his death Badeau assisted in their preparation and subsequently undertook a multi-volume study that expanded the documentary and analytical framework of Grant’s campaigns.
