"Avery's work is most likely the best memoir by an enlisted cavalryman during the Civil War."-Military Heritage "Chronicling the hardship and glory of wartime service with George Custer's famed Michigan Brigade, Avery's memoir is an insightful record of one Federal trooper's experience on campaign and battlefield. His narrative is an important contribution to our understanding of the Union cavalry's emergence as a potent agent of victory."-Brian C. Pohanka"A worthy addition to any well-rounded Civil War library. Under Custer's Command promises to stand the test of time long after many other works have been forgotten."-Civil War Book Review "A first-class read whether for the cavalry expert or someone coming to the subject for the first time."-North & South
