About this product
Product Information
From New York Times Bestselling Author Jennifer Chiaverini, the first novel to chronicle the singular relationship between Julia Grant, beloved First Lady, and the courageous woman who was her slave and namesake. In 1844, shy Missouri belle Julia Dent met Lieutenant Ulysses S. Grant, brilliant horseman and reluctant soldier. The two fell deeply in love, but Grant's abolitionist family refused to attend their wedding. For despite her husband's objections, Julia kept as her slave another Julia, known as Jule. Since childhood they had been companions and confidantes. Julia was gifted with prophetic dreams, which Jule helped her interpret; Julia secretly taught Jule to read, while Jule became her vision-impaired mistress's eyes to the world. But as Grant rose through the ranks of the Union army during the Civil War, the stark distinctions between mistress and slave strained their unlikely friendship. Both women risked certain danger as they traveled to and from General Grant's military headquarters--until the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation inspired Jule to make a daring bid for freedom.

Reviews
Praise for MRS. GRANT AND MADAME JULE "The battles are described in detail, but they do not overwhelm, nor do they overshadow the main topic. Chiaverini is a talented author who clearly did her research." -- RT Book Reviews "[Chiaverini's] depiction of the essential decency of some of our nation's early leaders is a high point." -- Booklist ""The intense research Chiaverini did to document the relationship between Julia and Ulysses Grant is admirable, and made their love story factual and heartwarming. It certainly gave this reader a different perspective of the famous general... All in all this work of historical fiction was a delightful read." -- Missourian "But never before has [Chiaverini] told a story of such touching beauty and original perspective as she does now in her latest tome, MRS. GRANT AND MADAME JULE." -- Bookreporter "Chiaverini's fans will love this light historical romance." -- Kirkus "Chiaverini's eye for detail coupled with an ability to breathe life into her characters ensures an engrossing period piece that does not fail to both entertain and inform." -- Library Journal Praise for Jennifer Chiaverini and her Novels "History--and its colorful characters--come alive." - USA Today "Jennifer Chiaverini imagines the First Lady's most private affairs through the eyes of an unlikely confidante." - Harper's Bazaar "Chiaverini has drawn a loving portrait of a complex and gifted woman . . .
