A visit to Grant’s Cottage

“Excellent guides who enrich the experience and help you to learn and understand what President /General Grant was going through in the weeks before his passing. History is ever present in our day to day life and it is more so when we get a chance to see it up close and personal. Grant's Cottage is one such place. Beautiful day on the mountain, JFK said" A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers". Grant is a man to honor and remember. So much history to explore and see in up state New York, stop by and experience Grant's Cottage.”
