Historian Edward G. Longacre has corrected this oversight by consulting dozens of collections of letters, diaries, and memoirs by officers and men of all ranks, including little known collections of letters by J.E. B. Stuart. Careful study of North Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia newspapers unearthed rare cavalry~specific dispatches. Longacre has left no stone unturned, and is the first historian to make extensive use of the unpublished memoirs of Gen. Wade Hampton, Stuart's second~in~command. Lee's Cavalrymen is a complementary volume to Lincoln's Cavalrymen: A History of the Mounted Forces of the Army of the Potomac. This exhaustively researched work not only details the organizational, administrative, and operational history of the mounted arm of the Army of Northern Virginia, but also examines personal aspects of the men themselves. Longacre chronicles the salient characteristics of the regiments, brigades, and divisions, and explores the evolution of cavalry leadership, with emphasis on the personalities, interpersonal relationships, and operational styles of J.E. B. Stuart, Wade Hampton, Fitzhugh Lee, and other influential commanders. The author also examines the development of mounted tactics, the operational influence of finite resources, and the tactical role and combat effectiveness of the Confederate horse artillery. Well known for interrogating "conventional wisdom," Longacre also contributes some provocative analyses regarding the mounted army's organization, leadership, and tactics. Lee's Cavalrymen is a study that no Civil War enthusiast will want to miss.…
