The book is so bright, explained perfectly. Researched amazingly. My dad has so many books and he loves military history. He is blown away. He is poorly so reading is one of the last pleasures he has but with so many books it’s been impossible to find anything new - until this one. Honestly nothing like it out there. Bright, honest, detailed and easy to read and understand. My brother was in the cavalry for 24 years and I have now completed 21 in support services. We two both think it’s classic and educational whilst inspirational. I know I’m going on but it’s imply because I’m so impressed. This is the most I have ever spent on a book and for the pleasure it has brought it’s certainly worth much more. Thank you - a true legend for making this book. Happy Christmas.

This book must have taken some time to put together. The amount of information in it is incredible. The market has not seen a book like this before and I suspect it will be a long time before it sees another. Well done Robin.
