Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original and unique work that will fill a huge gap in the field of military history, and be of interest to both scholars and general readers. It is a picture of the universal role of cavalry in warfare from earliest times to the present - and future. This book covers the role of horses and essential mobility in 'shock action', in warfare in the classical world, in the major civilizations of China and India, Steppe cavalry, in the middle ages with Islamic and European conflict, the 'social politics' in Christendom with knightly valor, and war with non-Christian forces including the Muslim invasion of Europe, Islamic Spain, and conflict with the Mongols. The early modern period covers the Asia and North Africa and the Ottomans - a major field of warfare continuing up to the modern period - and the time is notable for the introduction of horses in the Americas - a new phase in cavalry history. The modern period from Napoleon to the First World War is the history of the mobility of cavalry in European warfare and in imperial expansion and empire-building, but the concept of cavalry 'redundancy' arises in the maelstrom of 1914-1918 with artillery bombardment, trench warfare, and the role of infantry. The long 'transition' period leading up the present and future is fascinating for both cavalry and infantry, with the development of tanks and armor. And here is a fascinating and original concept of cavalry 'transformation' and not cavalry 'survivalism', with modern and post-modern development of drone warfare - from horses to drones - as a 'new cavalry' for reconnaissance and combat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cavalry Life in Tent and Field I take pleasure in directing attention to the kind and affectionate tribute paid my husband, Captain Orsemus Bronson Boyd, and contained in the Appendix of this volume. It is from the pen of a former classmate, the gifted writer, Colonel Richard Henry Savage. I trust my readers will not think this introduction too lengthy. The perusal of it seems necessary to a proper understanding of my reasons for describing, in the following pages, the pains, perils, and pleasures experienced by land and sea in the various peregrinations of a cavalry officers wife. With Colonel Savages testimonial it furnishes a completeness to the narrative that would otherwise be lacking.

This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having lived all of her nineteen years in New York City, Fannie Mullen could hardly have known what life lay ahead of her when she married Civil War veteran, Lieutenant Orsemus B. Boyd. They would spend the next twenty years moving from post to post on the American frontier, raising three children, making lifelong friendships, and seeing some of the wildest and most beautiful country on earth. Yet she adapted remarkably well and came to love the West and her home in the wilds of the territories. When her husband died suddenly in 1885, she went back to the east and eventually wrote this lovely account of her time with the United States Cavalry on the border. She was made of tough stuff and survived scorpions, snakes, Indians, and army politics. You'll find her classic memoir fascinating and charming. Every memoir of the American West provides us with another view of the movement that changed the country forever.

This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only fourteen years old when he first tried enlisting in the Union army, he was not quite seventeen when he mustered out at the end of the war. Along the way, Stanton Perry Allen saw plenty of fighting and dying, and served on the staff of General George Gordon Meade, the hero of Gettysburg. In this hilarious, at times irreverent, but also sorrowful and respectful memoir, Allen brought his skill as a professional writer and observer to the creation of one of the most pleasurable Civil War memoirs you'll ever read. After the war he was a journalist, editor, lieutenant in the New York National Guard, and a clergyman. His proximity to great events and people, and his ability to bring those years to life makes this a cherished personal account of the American Civil War. Every memoir of the American Civil War provides us with another view of the catastrophe that changed the country forever. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
