 GRANT'S
CAVALRYMAN - The Life and Wars of General James H. Wilson
Edward G. Longacre
(320 pages) STK
Price $24.95
SB
At the start of the Civil War, the cavalry of the
Union army seemed habitually to lag behind its Confederate opponents. It was
not for want of brave men or good animals. The fault, rather, laid in the
least glorious aspect of all military branches-organization and
administration. Once Union authorities applied some system to their cavalry
service, telling results rewarded their efforts. More than anyone else, the
man responsible for that success was Grant's cavalryman, Gen. James H.
Wilson. Drawing from a host of sources unused by previous historians and
marked by a dramatic narrative, Edward G. Longacre's Grant's Cavalryman is
the only modern biography of the man who revolutionized the Union cavalry.
