A companion to his previous work; Lincoln's Cavalrymen; this volume focuses on the cavalry of the Army of Northern Virginia its leadership; the military life of its officers and men as revealed in their diaries and letters; the development of its tactics as the war evolved; and the influence of government policies on its operational abilities. All the major players and battles are involved; including Joseph E. Johnston; P. G. T Beauregard; and J. E. B. Stuart. As evidenced in his previous books; Longacre's painstakingly thorough research will make this volume as indispensable a reference as its predecessor.
