The carbines used by the U.S. Cavalry have always been of special interest to both historians and collectors. And this exhaustively researched book covers the entire crucial period stretching from the beginning of the Civil War to the end of the cavalry carbine era in 1905.

Every one of these popular topics is covered in the this entertaining and informative book - all illustrated with a generous selection of period and modern photos.
