"The Union cavalry had spent the first two years of the war trying to equal Southern horsemen. Inferior leadership, lack of proper training, and improper use of the mounted services' capabilities hindered the Yankee soldiers from the very beginning. Then in the spring and summer of 1863 a new breed of leadership emerged. Along with changes in tactics, the U.S. cavalrymen slowly began to exert their superiority in both numbers of troops and equipment."--Jacket.
