Shelby and His Men is a historical non-fiction book written by John N. Edwards. The book tells the story of the Confederate cavalry leader, General Joseph O. Shelby, and his men during the American Civil War. The focus of the book is on the war in the western theater, which was largely fought in Missouri, Arkansas, and Kansas.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the war in the west. The first chapter provides an overview of the political and military situation in the region at the start of the war. Subsequent chapters cover the major battles and campaigns that took place, including the Battle of Wilson's Creek, the Battle of Pea Ridge, and the raid on Lawrence, Kansas.Throughout the book, Edwards provides detailed descriptions of the tactics and strategies employed by Shelby and his men. He also includes first-hand accounts from soldiers who fought under Shelby's command, as well as from civilians who lived in the areas where the battles took place.Overall, Shelby and His Men is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the lesser-known aspects of the Civil War. It provides valuable insights into the tactics and strategies employed by Confederate forces in the western theater, as well as the experiences of soldiers and civilians caught up in the conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
