   It's a long time since I read it but I recollect John Prebble's "The   
   Buffalo Soldiers" was about cavalry in the Indian Wars. And, of course,   
   The Ford / Wayne movie "The Horse Soldiers" was based on the novel by   
   Harold Sinclair which fictionalised Grierson's raid in the Civil War.   
   And stories by James Warner Bellah were the basis for the Ford / Wayne   
   cavalry trilogy.
