Event Description
Ulysses S. Grant did not preserve letters Julia wrote to her husband, but she left her family and posterity her memoir and the letters Ulysses sent her starting with their long-distance courtship. Using those words, Diana Carlin paints a picture of the woman who was a daughter of the West, a soldier’s wife, a first lady, and an intrepid world traveler.
Diana B. Carlin is professor emerita of communication at Saint Louis University and a former associate provost. She is currently completing a chapter on Julia Grant’s memoir for a book to be published by the University Press of Kansas. The program is free. Call 314-842-1867 ext. 230 for reservations.
