This is the fourth and final volume of Randy Steffen's monumental work, The Horse Soldier. With this volume the work brings together--in nearly a thousand pages of text and nearly 500 illustrations--a comprehensive history of the cavalryman's dress, horse equipment, weaponry -- every item the horse soldier wore, carried, or used--from Revolutionary times to World War II.

Volume IV covers the final twenty-five years--the World War I years, when the United States Cavalry fought for the first time as part of an allied force; the peacetime years, when the cavalry was largely a show force; and World War II, when mechanization finally outmoded the horse soldier, and the horse was traded for the tank. The cavalry became history.
