“Meade looked at Grant, and Grant turned, moved toward his tent, said quietly, “General, a moment, if you please …”
Jeff Shaara, The Last Full Measure

Bruce Catton
“From first to last the Army of the Potomac was unlucky. It fought for four years, and it took more killing, proportionately, than any army in American history, and its luck was always out; it did its level best and lost; when it won the victory was always clouded by a might-have-been, and when at last the triumph came at Appomattox there were so very, very many of its men who weren’t there to see it.”
Bruce Catton, Mr. Lincoln's Army
