An officer with the 9th Texas Cavalry Regiment, James Campbell Bates saw some of the most important clashes in the Civil War's western and trans-Mississippi theatres. In a detailed diary and dozens of long letters to his family, he recorded his impressions, confirming the image of the Texas cavalrymen as long on aggression and short on discipline.
