I would like thank Dr. M. Jane Johansson for her contribution to the "Texas Unit Histories Project". Dr. Johansson, author of "Peculiar Honor : A History of the 28th Texas Cavalry, 1862-1865" has graciously submitted for inclusion on Ken Jones "Texas In The Civil War" website an abbreviated history of this well-traveled unit. You can view this history of the 28th Texas Cavalry at http://www.tarleton.edu/~kjones/TXCavHist.html#28th-Cav .

For those of you considering the writing and submission of a unit history, please use Dr. Johansson's work as a guide, as well as those earlier unit histories provided by Lars Gjertviet and Tom Reid.

If you've not read Dr. Johansson's excellent history of the 28th Texas Cavalry, I encourage you to do so. Here is a link with information regarding the book and ordering instructions.
