They were incontestably 2 of the most important figures in the Civil War, but until now there has been no book about their victorious partnership & the deep friendship that made it possible. Heeding the call to save the Union, each struggled past political hurdles to join the war effort. Taking each other's measure at the Battle of Shiloh, they began their unique collaboration. Often together under fire on the war's great battlefields, they shared the demands of family life, the heartache of loss & supported each other in the face of mudslinging by the press & politicians. Their growing mutual admiration & trust set the stage for the crucial final year of the war & the peace that would follow. Read by the author Charles Bracelen Flood. Abridged
