Forgotten Valor

The first complete account of the 1st Missouri Cavalry Regiment, led by Colonel Elijah Gates. Written by James W. Farley, the book has received rave reviews for its content. Farley, in the first 200 pages takes the reader from the early formation of the Confederate regiment, through each and every battle, step by step as they followed their beloved commander. Believe me folks, you are right there in those battles. Excellent maps drawn by William Lay add to this wonderful book. In the last section, Mr. Farley has done all the work for you with the rosters and all information found within those files. A truly magnificent work. 487 pgs. soft-cover, $32.95 Hard Cover, $42.95; Two Trails Publishing
