Reviews
"Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known—that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."— Publishers Weekly, "Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known--that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."-- PublishersWeekly "Her charm, which is perhaps best expressed in the rambling conversational style of the book, is such that the reader is left with a sense of great loss at not having had the opportunity to have made Mrs. Grant's acquaintance."-- Chicago Tribune "She spins a story of romantic love, of happiness, of contentment, and there is no reason to doubt that she worked hard to make this possible both for herself and 'my dear Ulys.'"-- New York Times "Julia Dent Grant's memoirs are just perfect. This book combines history, love, personal insights, and a unique feminine viewpoint with one of America's most turbulent eras."-- West Coast Review of Books "Whatever happened to the old-fashioned love story? Well, you will find it in full bloom in The Personal Memoirs of Julia Dent Grant , edited by John Y. Simon. That is only one facet of the book."-- Wall Street Journal, "Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known-that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."- Publishers Weekly, "Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known--that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."-- Publishers Weekly, "Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known-that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."-PublishersWeekly, "Certainly this book is a literary and historic find, an engrossing book that reaffirms what historians have long known--that Julia and her famous husband had a loving and richly supportive relationship."-- PublishersWeekly "Her charm, which is perhaps best expressed in the rambling conversational style of the book, is such that the reader is left with a sense of great loss at not having had the opportunity to have made Mrs. Grant's acquaintance."-- Chicago Tribune "She spins a story of romantic love, of happiness, of contentment, and there is no reason to doubt that she worked hard to make this possible both for herself and 'my dear Ulys.'"-- New York Times

  • Personal Memoirs of Julia Dent Grant

    I haven’t started to read the book 📕 but I’m sure I will like it. I’ve almost finished reading My Dearest Julia by her husband. I’m interested in their lives together.

    We don't know much about Julia Grant, but this shows us she was a fine lady.
