AUTHOR

Bailey, Anne J.

SUMMARY

"Much of the Civil War west of the Mississippi was a war of waiting for action, of foraging already stripped land for an army that supposedly could provision itself, of disease in camp, while trying to hold out against Union pressure. There were none of the major engagements that characterized the conflict farther east. Instead small units of Confederate cavalry and infantry skirmished with Federal forces in Arkansas, Missouri, and Louisiana, trying to hold the western Confederacy together. The many units of Texans who joined this fight had a second objective - to keep the enemy out of their home state by placing themselves "between the enemy and Texas." Historian Anne J. Bailey studies one Texas unit, Parsons's cavalry brigade, to show how the war west of the Mississippi was fought."--BOOK JACKET.Bailey, Anne J. is the author of 'Between the Enemy and Texas Parsons's Texas Cavalry in the Civil War' with ISBN 9780875650340 and ISBN 0875650341.
