Book Description
The focus of this book is on the horse equipment of the civilian and soldier (both U.S. and Confederate) in the era from approximately 1840 to 1870. In some places, it has been purposely broadened in scope of time in both directions to include significant items or information. This makes for a more definite identification of the actual Civil War items in many cases. It is full of clear, sharp photos and descriptions. Western saddles are also shown. The horse in American history, breeds, saddle and equipment manufacture are all comprehensively covered. Plus -- A special supplement -- "The Fighting Man and His Mount" which displays numerous original dragoon and cavalry photographs, many previously unpublished.

Book Description
Building on the success of his best-selling The U.S. Army in the West, 1870-1880:Uniforms, Arms, and Equipment, Douglas C. McChristian here presents a two-volume comprehensive account of the evolution of military arms and equipment during the years 1880–1892. The volumes are set against the backdrop of the final decade of the Indian campaigns—a key period of transition in United States military history. In Volume 2, he focuses on weapons and other accouterments, recounting in detail the army’s quest to find a repeating rifle that would serve the needs of both cavalry and infantry across the plains. Drawing on extensive research in public and private collections throughout the United States and lavishly illustrated with more than four hundred color and black-and-white illustrations, these volumes will serve as invaluable references for collectors, curators, and students of militaria and of the frontier era.

Book Description
Horses are one of the many unsung heroes of the American Civil War. These majestic animals were impressed into service, trained, prepared for battle, and turned into expendable implements of war. There is more to this story, however. When an army’s means and survival is predicated upon an animal whose instincts are to flee rather than fight, a bond of mutual trust and respect between handler and horse must be forged. Ultimately, the Battle of Gettysburg resulted in thousands of horses killed and wounded. Their story deserves telling, from a time not so far removed.
