Synopsis

This book examines the brief but colorful history of the 1st US Volunteer Cavalry, and details the rich experiences of the men who fought in its ranks. Founded in May 1898 after the outbreak of the Spanish-American War, the unit was composed of volunteers from all walks of American life. Posted to Cuba, it fought in the battles of Las Guasimas, Kettle Hill and San Juan Hill. At this time, Theodore Roosevelt assumed command, and the unit became known as 'Roosevelt's Rough Riders'. Eventually withdrawn, the men returned to a hero's welcome in the US. The last veteran of the unit died in 1975, but a rich body of source material has survived, and much of this is covered in this fascinating work.

Review

"This book gives an in-depth account of the men who made up this most unusual unit... The chapters cover all aspeects of this unit from recruiting and the type of people who enlisted through training for combat, uniforms and equipment... The book has a good collection of contemporary photos and an excellent set of color plates by Stephen Walsh. This tome is a must-have for any one with an interest in the US ARmy as it fills a gap in the books available about this war." --Toy Soldier & Model Figure

"The author does a superlative job of telling the story of these men and the life they led while on campaign. It also covers the aftermath of the action and what happened to the unit once the battles were over. Overall a book that covers an important part of American history and one that I'm sure you will enjoy reading." --Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness, www.modelingmadness.com (July 2009)
