An Unlikely Brotherhood: The Rough Riders - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Representing a microcosm of pioneer America, the Rough Riders were cowboys, Indians -- mostly Cherokee, Chickasaw, Chocktaw, and Creek--, lawmen, farmers, lawyers, teachers, miners, medical doctors, New York City policemen, even a revenue agent. Volunteers had been born in nearly every state of the then 45 states of the Union. Fighting for their adopted country were immigrants from Australia, Austria, Canada, Cuba, Denmark, England, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Monaco, Norway, Prussia, Russia, Scotland, Sweden, and Switzerland. Yet, these men from every stratum of society and from different cultures, coalesced into a band of brothers on the battlefields of Cuba and for decades afterward.After an overview of the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry, the book profiles each of the Rough Riders --where they came from, who they were, what they did after the Spanish-American War. This is their story.
