The Training Ground: Grant, Lee, Sherman, and Davis in the Mexican War, 1846-1848For four years during the Civil War, Generals Grant and Lee clashed as bitter enemies in a war that bloodied and scorched the American landscape. Yet in an earlier time, they had worn the same uniform and fought together.

For four years during the Civil War, Generals Grant and Lee clashed as bitter enemies in a war that bloodied and scorched the American landscape. Yet in an earlier time, they had worn the same uniform and fought together. In The Training Ground, acclaimed historian Martin Dugard presents the saga of how, two decades before the Civil War, a group of West Point graduates--including Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S. Grant, Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson, and William Tecumseh Sherman--fought together as brothers. Drawing on a range of primary sources and original research, Dugard paints a gripping narrative of the Mexican War, which eventually almost doubled the size of the United States. The Training Ground vividly takes us into the thick brush of Palo Alto, where a musket ball narrowly misses Grant but kills a soldier standing near him; through the mountains and ravines of Cerro Gordo, as Lee searches frantically for a secret route into the Mexican army's seemingly invincible position; to Monterrey, as future enemies Davis and Grant ride together into battle; down the California coast, where war-hungry Sherman seeks blood and vengeance. And we are there as the young troops mount the final heroic--and deadly--assault on Mexico City. With narrative verve and brilliant research, The Training Ground brings to light a story of brotherhood, sacrifice, and initiation by fire.Binding Type: Paperback

Stylish, comfortable, and a great price.

Can't beat the quality at this price. This is my 2nd pair, my last pair (in brown) lasting almost 3 years as a work shoe in a dusty warehouse. Nice and light. Fitment is true to size. Very good looking and comfortable shoe. I suggest insoles as the soles are a little thin and can be rough on a bad back. And they squeak on the floor after they age. But again, for the price you can't beat these shoes. Did, would, and will buy again.

Excellent shoes.
Size: 11, Color: Black
Exceptionally comfortable and stylish. Great with casual slacks or jeans. If you have a casual work space or casual Fridays, these will be great. Good support. Good fit. Sizes are accurate.

Nice shoe, sizing information on this review
Size: 9, Color: Grey, Size: 9, Color: Grey
Ok, let's talk Breeze Mesh Sneakers by Bruno Marc (Grey)...... Firstly, they are nicely stylish appearance wise. They are lightweight (which I like). They feel comfortable and easy to walk in. I have not owned them very long, so I can't inform you on long term wear or how they feel after months of use. I own many pairs of shoes, mostly running type shoes. I needed a pair like these to wear in a more formal situation. Maybe with some dress pants or nice jeans. Now let's discuss the SIZING which is very important to me. Without a good fit, your shoes will never feel right when wearing. I normally wear size 9 in Men's. I seen someone mention that they 'run small'. I can do 9.5 in those situations, so I ordered 9.5. When they arrived and I tried them on, it was obvious they were too big. too much toe room in front. So I returned them for my normal size which is 9 Men's. Much better. AND, i still have toe room in front (no tightness). My suggestion to you is to order your normal size. The shoes feel like quality shoes and I feel that are a good purchase (for the price). The shoes came quickly. Bruno Marc is a good overall shoe. Hope this information helps.
