In the Saddle: Exploits of the 5th Georgia Cavalry During the Civil War (Hardcover)

In the Saddle is the touching story of a memorable Civil War unit,
and covers the first days of the war, the middle war with its
exhausting battles, skirmishes and cavalry raids, and the end of
the war with depleted ranks, death and surrender. The unit
distinguished itself in battle from the coasts of Florida, Georgia
and South Carolina, to the pathos and drama of the Atlanta battles,
and in harassing Sherman's blue hosts on his infamous march of
destruction to the sea. The story is told using narratives,
military sketches, and letters of members of the 5th Georgia - from
the teenage boy from the back woods of Georgia who enlisted in 1862
and served for the balance of the war, to the men who were captured
and endured life as a Northern prisoner of war, their story is one
whose voices call to us from the past. Supplemented with vintage
photographs and drawings, In the Saddle offers rich and rewarding
reading.
