4.0 out of 5 stars Useful Overview, December 29, 2001
This review is from: British Cavalry Equipments 1800-1941 (Men-at-Arms) (Paperback)
The author served after the British Cavalry was dismounted so he has no more experience with this materiel than I have with US Cavalry material. But that is not to say that neither of us do not know what we are covering, it just means we have to have done our research. By the time I was a grown man, the only cavalry I ever saw was led by John Wayne in Fort Apache when I was a boy. :) And I do not remember ever meeting a horse cavalryman in my life.
I certainly found a little on the British equipment while researching ours, and discovered the fact that the famous US issue "Patton" saber, M 1913, was copied directly from the British pattern 1908. Of course, give Patton credit for seeing a good thing. At the time most of our cross cultural influence was French.
Well, enough of this, if you have an interest buy it. If not, don't.
