History of the Carp and Crow Club

In the hopes that they may be of general interest, we will be sharing some pictures from the historical records of the Carp and Crow Club.  In this picture taken by Matthew Brady in 1864, Ulysses S Grant takes a much needed respite from the burdens of command to fish with members of the Carp and Crow Club in his officers corp, along the banks of the Ohio River.
