This C&C Sutlery 1864 Terry's Texas Rangers 8th Texas Cavalry Regiment shirt is a loose fitting design and is copied from the original 1800's pattern. The red shirt features CS State Seal Texas buttons, a fold over black collar, button black cuff, black epaulettes, and gusseted underarm. Front pockets are not available on this shirt. The shirt-tail hem is curved. It is made of 100% heavy cotton twill.

The ten companies of the Terry Texas Rangers were officially activated into the Confederate Army as the 8th Texas Cavalry Regiment, but throughout the Civil War they were known by the name of their first commander, Col. Benjamin F. Terry, who fell at the battle of Woodsonville. In over 200 battles including Shiloh, Bardstown, Perryville, Murfreesboro, Chichamauga and Knoxville, they gave credence to Gen. John B. Hood's remark that there was "no body of cavalry superior." When the South finally surrendered, there were scarcely enough men left to form one company. This volume of vivid descriptions, of the first-hand experiences of men in the ranks throughout the duration of the war, makes available three of the rarest pieces of Texana concerning the Terry Texas Rangers' role in the Civil War. (The Terry's Texas Ranger Trilogy by J.K.P.
