Description:
Historian and Spur Award-winning author Dale Walker tells the colorful story of America's most memorable fighting force, the Volunteer cavalry known as the Rough Riders. From its members -- a peculiar mix of western frontiersmen and idealistic young easterners -- and their slapdash training in Texas and Florida, to its battles at Las Guasimas and San Juan Hill under the command of Theodore Roosevelt, who kept riding, some say, into the White House, Dale Walker's spirited account of the regiment includes the story of why the U.S. went to war over Cuba, and how victory in the Santiago Campaign was achieved against all odds. Interviews with the last three surviving Rough Riders (the last of whom died in 1975) help to make this the definitive account of this entertaining chapter in American history.
