13th Kentucky Cavalry C.S.A.

The men of the 5th Kentucky Mounted Infantry called him Captain and later his subordinates in the 10th Kentucky Mounted Infantry called him Colonel. Some of his enemies called him a dangerous guerilla chieftain. Very late in the war his regiment was re-designated as the 13th Kentucky Cavalry. When his Confederacy no longer existed and there was no longer a need for his sword he picked up his Bible and returned to his former life as a country preacher and community leader. This book contains specific details regarding Confederate Colonel Ben E. Caudill's 13th Kentucky Cavalry. It includes a complete roster of the men who rode with Caudill historical accounts of their engagements with their enemy and a collection of period and post-war photographs.
