Rese�a del editor

Correspondence leading to detail Large but widely scattered command Join Sherman at Gaylesville Hearty welcome and carte blanche But little confidence in cavalry Conversations with Sherman Fit out Kilpatrick for March to the Sea Cavalry expedition to Blue Mountain Join Thomas at Nashville. The correspondence which led to my detail for the important work of reorganizing and commanding Sherman scavalry is interesting. It gives a glimpse of the grim humor in which Sherman1 often, and Grant sometimes,2 indulged. It also shows the flattering estimate in which those great soldiers held me, as well as the unflattering estimate in which up to that time they held the western cavalry and its leaders. I had just passed twenty-seven and had seen but six months service with cavalry in the field, but I had been in the war from the beginning and was not lacking confidence or ambition. 1O. E. Serial No. 79, p. 203. 16., p. 750.
