Follow one Pennsylvania cavalry regiment from enlistment to the long road home, and see the American Civil War 1861-1865 at ground level. Names, dates, lives on trial. H.P. Moyer's History of the Seventeenth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Cavalry (the 162nd in line) stands as a classic civil war regimental history: part narrative, part ledger, always human. Built from union cavalry records and the hard particulars of pennsylvania cavalry service, it tracks union army unit movements while preserving the details that too often vanish from big-picture histories. For readers who want primary source military history, the book offers an unvarnished view of how a pennsylvania cavalry regiment was raised, organised, and carried through years of campaigning. For family historians, its attention to muster rolls and casualties makes it a dependable genealogy research reference, a way to anchor a name to a place, a date, and a unit. As a military history reference book, it also serves collectors of pennsylvania civil war regiments and students of union army cavalry units alike, illuminating how local communities fed the Union war effort and how a single regiment's record reflects the wider conflict. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
