Cobb's Legion Cavalry : A History and Roster of the Ninth Georgia Volunteers in the Civil War by Harriet Bey Mesic (2011, Trade Paperback, Alternate)

"The best regiment of either army, North or South"--this was the description of Cobb's Legion offered by Confederate General Wade Hampton during the Civil War. This large and experienced unit played a crucial role for the South throughout the war. Their actions in more than 130 battles and other engagements over the course of the war are the subject of this book. Additionally, biographies of the officers and the nearly 1500 men of the regiment are included, as well as records of those who died, deserted, or were prisoners of war.
