DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... THE GREAT CAVALRY REVIEW. Our brigade was marched to Culpeper Courthouse, where General Stuart was assembling all of the available cavalry force in Virginia. I suppose we could muster about 9,000 men, forming five brigades, those of Fitz Lee, Hampton, Jones, Robertson and W. H. F. Lee. On the 8th of June, 1863, Gen. R. E. Lee notified General Stuart that he would review his cavalry. This review was held on the level plain below Culpeper, regardless of the growing crops of corn, wheat and oats, which were heedlessly trampled under the iron heels of our galloping chargers. The reviewing officers, General Lee and his subordinate generals, took position upon a slight eminence, in passing which we charged in squadrons (two companies forming a squadron). Meantime the horse artillery kept up a constant firing with blank cartridges, which converted the review, seemingly, into a real battle, making all the noise and clamor and presenting every appearance of a battle except the danger. My horse evidently considered it a real charge and a real battle, for when our turn arrived to charge by the reviewing party, regardless of my caresses and expostulations, and although I had a heavy army bit and curb upon her, she shot out like an arrow, overtaking the squadron in front, made a rear attack upon it, and broke it in two. This episode turned this part of the review into a ridiculous farce. The review, however, was a brilliant affair, and it was a grand sight to behold this splendid pageant, in which nearly 10,000 horsemen, well mounted, and fairly well dressed, took part under one of the greatest cavalry leaders known to history. MY HORSE MAKES ITS LAST CHARGE, AND IS KILLED BY THE EIGHTH NEW YORK CAVALRY. On the 8th of June, while we were having our...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNow in paperback, this major biography of J.E.B. Stuart—the first in two decades—uses newly available documents to draw the fullest, most accurate portrait of the legendary Confederate cavalry commander ever published. • Major figure of American history: James Ewell Brown Stuart was the South’s most successful and most colorful cavalry commander during the Civil War. Like many who die young (Stuart was thirty-one when he succumbed to combat wounds), he has been romanticized and popular- ized. One of the best-known figures of the Civil War, J.E.B. Stuart is almost as important a figure in the Confederate pantheon as Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. • Most comprehensive biography to date: Cavalryman of the Lost Cause is based on manuscripts and unpublished letters as well as the latest Civil War scholarship. Stuart’s childhood and family are scrutinized, as is his service in Kansas and on the frontier before the Civil War. The research in this biography makes it the authoritative work.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe 2nd North Carolina Cavalry fought its first major battle in its home state at New Bern on March 14, 1862, and narrowly escaped with its men and reputation intact. The regiment was nearly decimated in the Gettysburg Campaign, but was rebuilt and later fought with Robert E. Lee's cavalry in most major battles, including Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865, with only a handful of men. This history covers not only the 2nd North Carolina Cavalry's accomplishments and failures, but the events going on around them which influenced their actions and performance. The author pays particular attention to the 2nd North Carolina's involvement with the Army of Northern Virginia and the North Carolina Cavalry Brigade, and includes official documents, letters written to and from home, diaries and memoirs to present the soldiers' war experiences.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe sixteen essays in this volume, all previously unpublished, address the little considered question of the role played by religion in the American Civil War. The authors show that religion, understood in its broadest context as a culture and community of faith, was found wherever the war was found. Comprising essays by such scholars as Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, Drew Gilpin Faust, Mark Noll, Reid Mitchell, Harry Stout, and Bertram Wyatt-Brown, and featuring an afterword by James McPherson, this collection marks the first step towards uncovering this crucial yet neglected aspect of American history.
