In war, the raid is the epitome of daring. Usually heavily outnumbered, raiders launch sudden and surprise attacks behind enemy lines, taking prisoners, destroying communications, and seizing supplies. In the Civil War, these men rode on horseback, stunning their opponents with their speed and mobility. From J.E.B. Stuart's 1862 ride around McClellan's army to James Wilson's crushing raids in Alabama and Georgia in 1865, this work covers the adventurous and often dangerous exploits of the Union and Confederate cavalry officers who had a flair for plunging into the enemy's lair.
