The opening of the book sets the stage for a nuanced examination of the Civil War and its key players. Hill begins by highlighting the historical context surrounding the war and critiques the distortions presented in American history regarding these figures, urging a fair representation of both Grant and Lee's lives and legacies. He discusses the early roots of their families, both of which were affected by civil strife dating back to the conflict in England, drawing parallels between their backgrounds. The initial chapters lay the groundwork for understanding how these two men, shaped by their experiences and environments, would come to face one another in one of the most significant wars in U.S. history.
