"Although actively recruited in four states, by war's end 2,130 men and at least one woman from 29 states and 14 countries served in the 6th U.S. Cavalry. The book relies heavily upon primary sources to tell the regiment's story in the words of the participants. These include dairies and letters of officers and enlisted soldiers alike"--Provided by publisher.
