The Union Cavalry in the Civil War, Volume II continues the story
of the cavalry's operations in the East from July 1863 to Lee's
surrender in 1865. Starr follows the role of the cavalry in the
early Sheridan engagements in the Shenandoah Valley and the
cavalry's march from Winchester, Virginia, to rejoin the Army of
the Potomac in March 1865. The dynamic energy of the battles
described here emanates from Philip Sheridan, the motivating power
behind the cavalry's greatest success in the final April 1865
battles of Dinwiddie Court House, Five Forks, and Sayler's Creek.
In addition to the descriptions of raids?Sheridan's Yellow Tavern
and Trevilian Station raids and James H. Wilson's Staunton River
raid?and operation of the cavalry in support of the Army of the
Potomac, the volume covers the development of tactics and more
effective leadership, increasing reliance on firepower, the growing
strategic importance of the cavalry, and the establishment of the
Cavalry Bureau.
