Chernow is probably the first writer to bring to the audience the complete understanding of the personality of S. Grant as a president and the general, whose fortunes fluctuates with excessive speed and frequency.
Before the start of the Civil War, S. grant was floundering. All his business ventures ended abruptly and incurred huge loss. Despite his distinguished services given in the Mexican War, he resigned from the army in dishonor amid repeated indictments of drunkenness. But in the middle of war, S. Grant went on to realize his immense potential, going through the ranks of the Union army.
