| Summary | "Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant — Volume 1" by Ulysses S. Grant is a historical account written during the late 19th century that focuses on the life and military career of Ulysses S. Grant, one of America's prominent Civil War generals and the 18th President of the United States.

The opening of the memoir introduces Grant's personal background, detailing his ancestry and early childhood in Ohio. He reflects on the challenges and tribulations faced by his ancestors, which shaped his values and perspectives. Grant touches upon his family’s deep-rooted American heritage, his father’s commitment to his education despite limited resources, as well as his own early aspirations and the influences that guided him towards a military career. Throughout this initial section, readers gain insight into the formative experiences that would later influence his leadership during the tumultuous periods of American history in which he played a pivotal role.
