Real War Horses
Many histories have been written about the conflicts the British army was involved in between the Battle of Waterloo and the First World War. But this book by Anthony Dawson is the first to concentrate in depth, in graphic detail, on the experiences of the British cavalry during a century of warfare. There are detailed studies of campaigns and battles and general accounts of the experiences of the soldiers.
It is also compelling reading because it describes, using the words of the cavalrymen of the time, the organization, routines, training and social life of the cavalry as well as the fear and exhilaration of cavalry actions. That is why it is of such value. Perhaps the most memorable passages record the drama and excitement of cavalry charges and the brutal, confused, often lethal experience of close-quarter combat in a melee of men and horses.
