Fort Riley

A very good historical layout of the development of the post and famous Soldiers who have served at Fort Riley. Many pictures particularly of post Civil and pre WW II era. Especially enjoyed history of calvary and horses at Fort Riley. In many of the pictures, the authors point out specific pieces of uniforms which all former Soldiers will find interesting. Emphasis of the book is pre-Vietnam era. Would have enjoyed more emphasis on development of Custer Hill area, later family housing and areas common to Soldiers and their families.
