We can talk about who was the best or greatest cavalry man but in this thread which cavalry man had the one greatest and glorious ride or raid into their opponent backyard during the Civil War.
Was it:...
CS. Jeb Stuart: Ride around the AoP, 1862
US. Ben Grierson: Ride through Mississippi, 1863
CS. Jo Shelby: Ride through Missouri, 1863
CS. Nathan Forrest: Ride through Tennessee, 1863
CS. Joe Mosby: Greenback Raid, 1863
CS. John Morgan: Ride to the Ohio, 1863
US. James Wilson: Ride through Alabama, 1865
US. Phil Sheridan: Richmond Raid, 1864
US. A.D. Straight: Mule ride to Georgia. 1863
Another Ride: I know someone will find another Ride I should have listed....
Remember, I am looking for the one greatest, glorious ride or raid of the Civil War. I have given you a list but you are free to pick whatever ride you feel was "THE ONE GREATEST RIDE OF THE CIVIL WAR" by a cavalry man.
Some thoughts.....
