In preparing this book it has not been the purpose of the author to write a complete historical sketch of the Michigan cavalry brigade. Such a history would require a volume as large for the record of each regiment; and, even then, it would fall short of doing justice to the patriotic services of that superb organization. The narrative contained in the following pages is a story of the personal recollections of one of the troopers who rode with Custer, and played a part small it is true, but still a part in the tragedy of the civil war. As such it is modestly put forth, with the hope that it may prove to be an interesting story to those who read it. The author also trusts that it may contribute something, albeit but a little, toward giving Custer s Michigan cavalrymen the place in the history of their country which they so richly earned on many fields. Doubtless many things have been omitted that ought to have been included and some things written in that it might have been better to leave out.

Personal Recollections of Cavalryman With Custer Michigan Cavalry Brigade in the Civil War Classic Reprint James Harvey Kidd Books
The writing is a good first person account of one Union officer in the War Between the States. He wrote it several decades after the war, as did most men, but he did research official records of both north and south to supplement his memory which worked well. It is very readable today and seems to be historically accurate. I would recommend it.The only downside to the book is somewhat poor print quality. I realize that it is a scan and print of an old book, but the quality seems worse than it should be.
In any case, for the price, it was well worth it.
