FinnFinnAI Guide

Nanalo si Grant sa Civil War para sa North, pagkatapos ay naging pangulo. Sa dulo ng kanyang buhay ay naghihingalo siya at walang pera, kaya isinulat niya ang aklat na ito nang mabilis para mag iwan ng pera para sa kanyang pamilya. Isinulat niya ito sa simple at malinaw na mga salita, labanan bawat labanan, nang walang pagyayabang. Isang sikat na manunulat, si Mark Twain, ang nagsabi na isa ito sa pinakamahusay na aklat na naisulat kailanman ng isang American. Totoo iyon.
