The mounted soldier is one of the most evocative symbols in
Australian military history. Now a celebrated part of Australia's
army heritage, the role and very existence of mounted troops in
modern warfare was being called into question at the time of its
most crowning military moments. Light horse regiments, particularly
those that served in South Africa, Palestine and the trenches of
Gallipoli, played a vital role in Australia's early military
campaigns. Based on extensive research from both Australia and
Britain, this book is a comprehensive history of the Australian
Light Horse in war and peace. Historian Jean Bou examines the place
of the light horse in Australia's military history throughout its
existence, from its antecedents in the middle of the nineteenth
century, until the last regiment was disbanded in 1944.
