The most celebrated of them, the 1st United States Volunteer Calvary, also known as "The Rough Riders," was led by Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. A motley crew of cowboys and Ivy League scholars, the Rough Riders were hastily trained and thrown into battle in less-than-ideal circumstances. This is Roosevelt's eyewitness account of the Rough Rider's grueling, malaria-plagued campaign against Spanish forces in Cuba, including their famed uphill charge at San Juan Hill. 541 $d 20221024. 600 17 $a Roosevelt, Theodore, $d 1858-1919. 610 1 $a United States $b Volunteer Cavalry, 1st $b Volunteer Cavalry, 1st $x History. 650 $a Spanish-American War, 1898 $x Regimental histories. 650 $a Spanish-American War, 1898 $v Personal narratives. 941 $a 1 952 $l SHPC094 $d 20221101013254.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9391078659AA11ED98ECE2DC3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
