"This book illustrates in 96 pages of magnificent colour uniforms of some of the most famous cavalry regiments and other mounted troops of Britain and the Commonwealth. Jack Cassin-Scott, who has specialised in military illustration, has brought to the authors' research his own expert knowledge, and has created a a picture gallery which captures something of the à lan of the great regiments of Life Guards, Horse Guards, Dragoon Guards, Hussars and Lancers. An added point of interest is that every illustration includes the "mount", there are 92 horses, three camels and even one tank to round off the story and serve as a link with the more recent but equally spectacular role of the mechanised cavalry during and since the Second World War."
