[RC] :) - Cindy Collins

You're going to love my friend, Angie. This is one of her posts to ridecamp about who you'd want to ride with (historically):

Re: [RC] Who would I want to ride with? (just for fun) - rides2far@xxxxxxxx

Confederate cavalrymen like Robert E. Lee, J.E.B. Stuart

and Nathan Bedford Forest was a heck of a cavalryman. His legacy is just too tied
up to him forming the Klan for him to get any credit. They captured him once
and he reached over and grabbed a yankee off his horse and galloped away
holding him behind him as a human shield.

To keep this on topic. I read once that his guys rode their horses right out of
their hooves on some campaign and the author theorized that in the area they
were in they had gotten overdosed on selenium.
