Description

The southerner of the mid-19th century had been bred to ride horses. As well as the period southerner had long been used to handling firearms, through hunting for pleasure, food or simply for sport. The mix of these factors promised that once the southern states started to secede in December 1860, the cavalry would be an important combat arm. This title looks at how the lads of the Confederate cavalry were recruited, trained, lived and fought all the way through the Civil War (1861-65). Both routine and campaign life are covered, in addition to the weapons and equipment that served them of their combat roles. Key encounters such as the 1863 clash at Brandy Station are also covered on this authoritative text.
