Book Overview

Stuart's Cavalry In The Gettysburg Campaign is a historical book written by John Singleton Mosby in 1908. The book is an account of the role played by Confederate cavalry commander, J.E.B. Stuart, during the Gettysburg Campaign of the American Civil War. Mosby, who served under Stuart during the campaign, provides a detailed and firsthand account of the cavalry's movements and actions during the three-day battle at Gettysburg.

Lee without crucial intelligence, and the subsequent impact of that decision on the Confederate Army's defeat. Mosby's account is a valuable and informative resource for anyone interested in the American Civil War, particularly the role of cavalry in battle.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
