Take Two

Must learn to double check what I upload after doing it.Looks like that was an older one. Now the proper new version is uploaded...... (updated to Oct 31 version)

 Meanwhile, here are 3 books on cavalry worth having, esp if you are interested in the 19th C (though 2 of them cover earlier).


Von Warner's Remarks on Cavalry is a facsimile of a late 18thC publication. I confess, I'd just as soon that someone had re-typed it. My eyes are bad enough without trying to remember that Faxony has nothing to do with sending data electronically.

Dennison's History of Cavalry was 1st published in 1877 but was updated after the Boer &  Russo-Japanese Wars.

Cooke's Manual is a good "how to". Just as well not to get too deep into that stuff but it does show maneuverable well trained cavalry could be.


After supper, I rolled up a new US deployment and plan, reset the table and tried again. It was closer but in the end the result was the same.
