Civil War Cavalry & Artillery Sabers: A Study of United States Cavalry and Artillery Sabers, 1833 - 1865 by John H. Thillmann, published in 2001 by Andrew Mowbray Incorporated. Hardcover with original dust jacket; 520 pages including appendices, bibliography, and index. Cover measures approximately 11 ¼ by 9 inches. Black and white photographs, with a color photo section towards the beginning of the book. Condition almost like new; very small specks of dirt on back cover.

The ultimate guide to sabers of the Civil War. This huge resource is easily the most important sword book written in decades, and is lavishly illustrated with 1,400 photographs, 60 of them in color. An important extra feature is that it also includes all sabers from the prewar period, right back to 1833. Every make and every known variation is covered with full history, tables and illustrations. Photographs include hundreds of close-ups showing the small features that tell one saber apart from the others. A truly groundbreaking work.
