Rebel Against The Rebels: The Story of the 1st Alabama Cavalry, U.S.A. and Their Struggle for the Union by Williams Carlson is a book on the history and service of the 1st Alabama Cavalry, U.S.A., a remarkable and unique regiment in the Civil War history, composed of loyal and brave Alabamians who fought for the Union and freedom against their own state and people. The book uncovers and restores the truth about the regiment and its soldiers, who participated in many battles and campaigns, demonstrating their skills, courage, and sacrifices, and contributing to the preservation of the Union and the abolition of slavery. The book also reveals and corrects the conspiracy and cover-up orchestrated by the proponents of the Lost Cause ideology, a revisionist and romanticized view of the Confederacy and the Civil War that emerged in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and that sought to erase and silence the history and achievements of the 1st Alabama Cavalry, U.S.A. The book aims to inform and educate the readers about the regiment and its soldiers, and to challenge and inspire them to learn more about the regiment and its soldiers, and to honor and respect their memory and legacy.
