Description

"The book traces the history of the Richardson Light Guard from its origins in 1851, through war and peace, until its end in 1975. Though the rise of the National Guard was generally positive, bringing uniformity, professionalism and better equipment, for some militia companies, inclusion into the National Guard weakened vital bonds with their communities. "--Provided by publisher.
