Horse connection:
(military) A Confederate scout relies upon his trusty mounts

Description:
Drew Rennie grew up on his grandfather's Kentucky estate with the finest horses and his grandfather's hatred. When Grandfather sided with the North, young Drew ran away to join the Confederacy and became a trusted veteran scout.

Horses are not the focus here, but you can tell a horseman's writing even so: Drew's mounts are carefully described and prized for their canny natures and willingness to endure the unendurable. The book thoroughly describes the hardships of the soldiers and their pride in fighting well, even as they come to recognize that their cause is lost.
