Alexander, John H: Mosby’s men. $2. Neale.
7–2744.
Mr. Alexander tells how Mosby’s men “played and how they worked and how they fought.” Not a history of Mosby’s command, only a narrative of what an alert young soldier saw of the men and their doings following the spring of 1864.

“The book is interesting for its story-telling qualities alone, and it is not without value as a contribution to the records of the civil war.”

“This book has less of real dramatic quality and less of humor than that by Mr. Munson of which we recently spoke, but is still a readable true story. It is illustrated by many portraits.”
