Join us to celebrate the release of Jonathan Washington's first military history book, FIGHTING VICHY FROM HORSEBACK: British Mounted Cavalry in Action, Syria 1941.
About the Book:
This book starts with the story of a division that was never intended to fight; the British 1st Cavalry Division in the Second World War. It was composed almost exclusively of yeomanry horsemen from Britain's Territorial Army - a force that had been ignored by Whitehall's military reforms since 1920. In May 1941, an incongruous saga of deception, desperation and reinvention, saw British horsemen advancing into Syria on Operation "Exporter".
