About this ebook
In The Boys of '98, Spur Award winning author Dale L. Walker tells the colorful story of Americas most memorable fighting force, the volunteer cavalry known as the Rough Riders.
From its members, and their slapdash training in Texas and Florida, to its battles at Las Gusimas and San Juan Hill under the command of Theodore Roosevelt, who kept riding, some say, into the White House.
"This lively and carefully detailed narrative of one of the more unlikely military units and of a short, savage war, celebrates some gallant men and catches their nation at the moment it emerged as a world power. " - Kirkus Reviews
