Description: Thank you for shopping Offered for sale is this copy of the 2021 historical book, "To Rescue The Republic: Ulysses S. Grant, The Fragile Union, and the Crisis of 1876" by Bret Baier with Catherine WhitneyAfter defeating Lee's Army of Northern Virginia to end the Civil War, Ulysses S. Grant was the most famous and popular man in the world. Naturally, he was elected President of the United States by an overwhelming margin in 1868. But his military acumen was less than helpful as he dealt with the often corrupt field of politics. Despite backstabbing and disloyalty in his administration, Grant served two modestly successful terms and decided to leave office only to witness a major crisis centered on the election to choose his successor. Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel J. Tilden became caught up in a struggle over voting legitimacy in 1876 as several former Confederate states returned to the Union.This book is an easy read, not convoluted with arcane historical concepts like many others.
