By Stephen Wood
Hardback
On 18 June 1815, the Royal Scots Greys charged Napoleon's infantry columns, capturing the eagle of the French 45th Infantry.
Napoleon is said to have commented of the regiment, 'Ah, ces terribles chevaux gris (those terrible grey horses).' Today that eagle is the regimental badge of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, Scotland's senior regiment and her only regular cavalry.
This book tells the story of glorious cavalry charges and terrifying tank battles, from the Western Front to the liberation of Basra. Stunning paintings bring the narrative to life while contemporary photographs depict some of the reality of modern warfare as experiences by the officers and soldiers of this unique regiment.
