I thought I'd seen every photograph of Grant ever made, but I stumbled upon this one in a book I bought several months ago that's not about Grant at all: The Sacrificial Years: A Chronicle of Walt Whitman's Experiences in the Civil War. Since Whitman spent 1863 through 1866 working as a volunteer nurse in military hospitals, most of the book's 50 photographs are of battlefields, hospitals and Whitman himself. But there was one photo each of Grant and Lee, and I think this one of Grant is a treasure.
So how about it, Grant fans? Any of y'all seen this one before?
