Picone, LouisULYSSES'S ODYSSEY: Ulysses S. Grant's World Tour at the Dawn of American Empire Chronicles how Grant, newly departed from two terms in the White House, embarked on an extraordinary three-year journey to explore the world. Details how Grant's odyssey spanned continents, from Europe's capitals to uncharted terrain for an American president, including Egypt, the Holy Land, the Ottoman Empire, Russia, India, Siam, Saigon, China, and Japan where he was welcomed by throngs and honored by monarchs, kings, queens, emperors, and heads of state.
