This book sets the record straight: the British cavalry-man as often as not accompanied his un-mounted colleagues to far-flung parts of the globe. They acted as scouts, they protected the flanks of the infantry in attack, and its rear in retreat. On many occasions it was the charge of the cavalry, regardless of cost to itself, which tuned the tide of battle.* This is a GD+ copy with some shelf wear & tanning.*
