The horse is an essential component of New Zealand's social,
environmental, economic and military history. Yet despite this
obvious truth, it is a topic which was been overlooked by New
Zealand historiography. The horse's role throughout New Zealand's
history has been identified by prominent environmental historians
as an area in desperate need of examination; however, it is one yet
to be undertaken. In an effort to start filling the gap in New
Zealand's equine historiography, The Good Steed will use the late
nineteenth and early twentieth century military context as a
microcosm for the history of New Zealand's horse. This is an
informed hypothesis of what New Zealand's military horse
experienced in these two modern wars. In essence, history from the
horse's point-of-view. The nature of war is awful in itself, but
when animals are unconsciously included in the context, as horses
were in these two modern wars, the impact of the experience is, as
you will see, nothing less than horrific.
