In the library. Some artifacts you can’t see elsewhere. Grant was much shorter than I would have imagined. It would be neater if there were more discussion of his post-presidency controversy, but hey - it’s a presidential museum. Worth a stop. Also had a really neat Lincoln exhibit. We were told it’s the largest private collection of Lincoln items.
