Weddle weaves the letters exchanged between Americus Leonidas Nelms and his wife Minerva Jane--his maternal grandparents--during the Civil War into a narrative about the Civil War itself. He resists the temptation to make it a family story, offering evidence of heroism and self-sacrifice by those whose forebears served in the Confederacy. The Civil War story, from whatever angle it is viewed, is one of pathos, suffering, and tragedy. It is as much so when regarded in the perspective of the deserters and those who suffered unreasoning persecution for their Union sympathies as when seen in the eyes of the long-suffering and homesick Confederate soldier. The fact is epitomized in this study of the North Texas area, whose people were sharply divided on the matter of secession.
Book Synopsis From Horses to Horsepower by : Alexander Bielakowski
Download or read book From Horses to Horsepower written by Alexander Bielakowski and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2019-09-08 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following World War I, horse cavalry entered a period during which it fought for its very existence against mechanized vehicles. On the Western Front, the stalemate of trench warfare became the defining image of the war throughout the world. While horse cavalry remained idle in France, the invention of the tank and its potential for success led many non-cavalry officers to accept the notion that the era of horse cavalry had passed. During the interwar period, a struggle raged within the U.S. Cavalry regarding its future role, equipment, and organization. Some cavalry officers argued that mechanized vehicles supplanted horses as the primary means of combat mobility within the cavalry, while others believed that the horse continued to occupy that role. The response of prominent cavalry officers to this struggle influenced the form and function of the U.S. Cavalry during World War II.

Book Synopsis "Those Damn Horse Soldiers" by : George Walsh
Download or read book "Those Damn Horse Soldiers" written by George Walsh and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many accounts of the Civil War battles, armies, and key figures have been written over the years, but none have looked at the bloodiest war in our nation's history through the eyes of the cavalry. The horse soldiers in the Civil War are often referred to as the last of the cavaliers, men who valued their honor as much as their cause. In this sweeping saga George Walsh brings to life anew the gallant horse soldiers of the North and South, showing in dramatic detail how their raids and expeditions affected the outcome of the war and how their fortunes waxed and waned. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Book Synopsis Walker's Texas Division, C.S.A. by : Richard Lowe
Download or read book Walker's Texas Division, C.S.A. written by Richard Lowe and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2006-04-01 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colorfully known as the "Greyhound Division" for its lean and speedy marches across thousands of miles in three states, Major General John G. Walker's infantry division in the Confederate army was the largest body of Texans -- about 12,000 men at its formation -- to serve in the American Civil War. From its creation in 1862 until its disbandment at the war's end, Walker's unit remained, uniquely for either side in the conflict, a stable group of soldiers from a single state. Richard Lowe's compelling saga shows how this collection of farm boys, store clerks, carpenters, and lawyers became the trans-Mississippi's most potent Confederate fighting unit, from the vain attack at Milliken's Bend, Louisiana, in 1863 during Grant's Vicksburg Campaign to stellar performances at the battles of Mansfield, Pleasant Hill, and Jenkins' Ferry that helped repel Nathaniel P. Banks's Red River Campaign of 1864. Lowe's skillful blending of narrative drive and demographic profiling represents an innovative history of the period that is sure to set a new benchmark.

Book Synopsis Our Cavalry by : Michael Frederic Rimington
Download or read book Our Cavalry written by Michael Frederic Rimington and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work aimed to provide valuable information on Cavalry. A cavalry is a group of soldiers or warriors who combat mounted on horseback. Michael Frederic Rimington writes about the origins of the cavalry, how it was in the past ages, the changes it underwent, its horses, tactics, participation in battles, and many more. Not only do we learn about the functioning and operations of the cavalry, but we also understand the beliefs of the author regarding war and what winning a war meant to him. It is an insightful work for the junior officers of all armies because of the helpful pieces of advice Rimington gives throughout. This makes the book relevant even today when cavalry isn't even present in large numbers.
