"Grant vs. Lee conveys the desperation and high stakes of the war's final, grueling campaigns, whose movements are often overlooked in Civil War studies. The detailed illustrations help readers to envision the events as they unfolded and will give them a new appreciation of these battles and campaigns." - Bert Dunkerly, Park Ranger, Richmond National Battlefield Park and author of The Civil War in Virginia, The Confederate Surrender at Greensboro, and Old Ninety Six "Well researched and excellently told, the real history from the Wilderness to Appomattox using primary sources is brought to life with captivating illustrations. The last year of the war comes alive in Grant vs. Lee from the private soldier to the generals themselves. An engaging read for all ages." - Patrick Schroeder, Historian, Appomattox Court House National Historical Park "Grant vs. Lee is a graphic illustrated treatment of the all important 1864 Overland Campaign between the two most iconic Civil War generals. In less than 100 illustrated pages, the important aspects of the campaign are vividly recounted, with a remarkable degree of attention to accuracy and historical integrity. The illustrations add to the narrative, making for a compelling and enjoyable read." - Robert I. Girardi, author of The Civil War Generals, and past president of the Civil War Round Table of Chicago, "Grant vs. Lee conveys the desperation and high stakes of the war's final, grueling campaigns, whose movements are often overlooked in Civil War studies.
