He also provides insight into the daily life of a trooper, including the challenges of living in the trenches and the camaraderie that developed between soldiers.Throughout the book, Coleman emphasizes the importance of the cavalry in World War I, even though they were often overshadowed by other branches of the military. He also highlights the role of horses in the war effort, and the bond that developed between soldiers and their mounts.With Cavalry in the Great War is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of World War I, particularly the experiences of British soldiers.
