Horses Still Play Important Part In European Conflict
European allies spent nearly 1000000 for war horses in a little over a year of the present conflict. The Civil War era saw vast horse drives as volunteers rode plow horses and mules were heavily used by the Confederacy. Northern and western states sent horses to the South, with many not returning home. Grant allowed surrendering Confederates at Appomattox to take horses home. Uncle Sam emerged as the greatest horse owner, auctioning surplus mounts after early summer 1865.
