Ranger Mosby by Virgil Carrington Jones, INSCRIBED ~1st Ed 3rd Printing, 1944   Very Good+ in a Very Good+ dust jacket  

Mosby and his men. the 'hellcats on horseback' who so effectively harassed Grant and Sheridan in 64 and 65 are fully pictured here for the first time. Up and down the Valley of Virginia they penetrated the Federal lines at will, a swift and invisible scrounge to outpost and supply trains. Anticipating the tactics of the modern commandos, Mosby enlisted old men and young, farmers, and foreign adventurers - anyone who could ride and fight.
