The Book of Dram 🥃
Happy Friday everyone 🎉 this week’s quote comes from former President Abraham Lincoln, concerning his commander-in-chief Ulysses S. Grant.
Lincoln and Grant formed a crucial, but very unusual, partnership during the American Civil War. Lincoln promoted Grant from general directly to commander of all Union armies, due to his blind faith in Grant's abilities, never even having met face-to-face. Grant’s exploits were key to the Union's eventual victory.
Must’ve been the whiskey 👀
