About This Book

A purely military history which traces the 1864 campaign of Brig. Gen. John McCausland's division of Confederate cavalry that resulted in the retaliatory raid on Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. Also treated are the two weeks following the burning of Chambersburg. The author argues that the raid resulted in Lincoln's instructions to General Grant to cease the destruction of civilian property by the Union army.
