Description
Three Years in the Federal Cavalry chronicles the years Willard W. Glazier spent in the mounted service of the United States. This edition includes the original illustrations of people he knew and events he experienced.
An eye-opening account of how the Union cavalry operated during the American Civil War, this book offers a first-hand account of one cavalryman's experiences from the time he enlisted in April 1961 through to his capture by Confederate forces in October 1863. Between these dates, Glazier's unit was involved in many conflicts, their roles often pivotal and their gallantry unquestionable.
Willard W. Glazier was at the front line in several key conflicts throughout the American Civil War. He and his fellow cavalrymen fought in Maryland and Virginia under multiple prominent commanders such as McClellan and Burnside. Glazier is careful to balance the excitement and chaos of battle with the more mundane realities of fighting a war. Everyday camp life and the conversations the officers would have among themselves, and the journeys between the battlefields, receive due consideration.
Considered today to be a classic biography for its honest readability, Glazier's account of his military service remains popularly read to this day. Whether you harbor a general interest in the U. S. Civil War or the American cavalry as a unit, or simply enjoy good autobiography, this is a title worthy of attention.
