"Mosby's War Reminiscences; Stuart's Cavalry Campaigns" by John Singleton Mosby is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work captures the experiences and reflections of Mosby, a Confederate cavalry officer, as he details his involvement in the Civil War, particularly his campaigns under General J.E.B. Stuart. The narrative provides insights into the valor and complexities of the cavalry operations that aimed to disrupt Union forces and supply lines. The opening of the book establishes the fervent patriotism and urgency that gripped Virginia at the onset of the Civil War in 1861. Mosby recounts his decision to join the Confederate cavalry, influenced by a strong sense of duty and the excitement surrounding the early efforts of the Confederacy. He vividly describes his first experiences in military preparations, the challenges faced during drills, and the camaraderie among soldiers fueled by high hopes for victory. Through Mosby’s perspective, readers gain a glimpse of the motivations and emotions driving both his decisions and the collective spirit of those engaged in the conflict.
