Book Synopsis Doctrine and Reform in the British Cavalry 1880–1918 by : Stephen Badsey
Download or read book Doctrine and Reform in the British Cavalry 1880–1918 written by Stephen Badsey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prevalent view among historians is that both horsed cavalry and the cavalry charge became obviously obsolete in the second half of the nineteenth century in the face of increased infantry and artillery firepower, and that officers of the cavalry clung to both for reasons of prestige and stupidity. It is this view, commonly held but rarely supported by sustained research, that this book challenges. It shows that the achievements of British and Empire cavalry in the First World War, although controversial, are sufficient to contradict the argument that belief in the cavalry was evidence of military incompetence. It offers a case study of how in reality a practical military doctrine for the cavalry was developed and modified over several decades, influenced by wider defence plans and spending, by the experience of combat, by Army politics, and by the rivalries of senior officers. Debate as to how the cavalry was to adjust its tactics in the face of increased infantry and artillery firepower began in the mid nineteenth century, when the increasing size of armies meant a greater need for mobile troops. The cavalry problem was how to deal with a gap in the evolution of warfare between the mass armies of the later nineteenth century and the motorised firepower of the mid twentieth century, an issue that is closely connected with the origins of the deadlock on the Western Front. Tracing this debate, this book shows how, despite serious attempts to ’learn from history’, both European-style wars and colonial wars produced ambiguous or disputed evidence as to the future of cavalry, and doctrine was largely a matter of what appeared practical at the time.

Book Synopsis The British Cavalry by : Philip Warner

Book excerpt: "For three hundred years British cavalry regiments have been the admiration of the world, formidable in action, impressive in appearance and colourful in character. Philip Warner's new book is a[n] ... illustrated history of these regiments in the field. He tells the fascinating story of the origin and development of the cavalry, of the officers and men of the regiments, and of the battles and engagements in which the cavalry has played a key part. From the spirited actions of the English Civil War, through the Napoleonic Wars and the years in India, up to the twentieth century when cavalry regiments successfully adapted to their new mount, the tank, the British cavalry has been characterised by its chivalry, dash and nonchalance. And in these pages are ... accounts of successful cavalry actions as well as inglorious disasters; of courageous exploits as well as reckless enterprises; of tactical geniuses, such as the Duke of Marlborough in the eighteenth century and General Allenby in the twentieth, as well as of generals of less repute ... In this fine study, full of vivid eye-witness accounts and written with a verve and understanding of a form of warfare which was often more ingenious and complex than outward appearances suggested ... reminding us of the courage, skills, customs, and astonishing endurance of our forebears"--Jacket.
