History of the Essex Troop 1890-1925 provides a comprehensive chronicle of one of New Jersey's most distinguished military units during a period of significant transformation. Spanning from its late 19th-century origins through the end of the First World War, this volume details the evolution of the troop from a local cavalry organization into a vital component of the United States military. The work offers an in-depth look at the unit's training, social structure, and active service, including their deployment during the Mexican Border campaign and their critical contributions to the American Expeditionary Forces in Europe.

Beyond mere dates and locations, the narrative captures the unique spirit of the Essex Troop, blending formal records with insights into the daily lives of the soldiers. It meticulously documents the transition from traditional equestrian maneuvers to the mechanized demands of modern 20th-century warfare. As a foundational text for understanding the lineage of the 102nd Cavalry, History of the Essex Troop 1890-1925 remains an invaluable resource for military historians and those interested in the rich martial heritage of the state of New Jersey.
