Great history continued!By Nat ShapiraHaving read--no; "devoured"--Vol. 1; I am anxious to get into Vol. 2 and continue reading such a magnificently detailed and interesting account of the Union cavalry operations in the Civil War. Besides the historical facts; what adds greatly to the pleasure of reading Steven Starr's writing are the many anecdotes; which add to the overall reading experience. The writing is so good and so detailed; that I find it hard to stop turning the pages.pages.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. ThoroughBy C. M. ClarkeStarr's three-volume study of the Union cavalry is the go-to book on the subject. A must-have for the serious Civil War student.
