Event Details
Join Macculloch Hall Historical Museum (MHHM) and the Morristown and Morris Township Library (MMTL) for an exciting event with author Louis Picone as he discusses his newest book, Ulysses’s Odyssey: Ulysses S. Grant’s World Tour at the Dawn of American Empire!
In May 1877, Ulysses S. Grant, newly departed from two terms in the White House, embarked on an extraordinary three-year journey that defined a pivotal moment in the Gilded Age. Driven by a lifelong passion for travel and unburdened by a fixed itinerary, Grant set out to explore the world, his wanderlust sustained by modest means. Louis L. Picone’s Ulysses’s Odyssey: Ulysses S. Grant’s World Tour at the Dawn of American Empire masterfully chronicles this unprecedented adventure, illuminating its historical significance and Grant’s enduring legacy.
