Summary

With Cavalry in 1915 is a firsthand account by Frederic Coleman, a British trooper who served during World War I. The book documents his experiences transitioning from traditional cavalry warfare to trench fighting during the Second Battle of Ypres in 1915. Coleman provides a soldier's perspective on this pivotal moment when mounted cavalry units were increasingly deployed in static trench warfare. His narrative captures the harsh realities of life in the trenches, the challenges of adapting cavalry tactics to modern warfare, and the brutal conditions faced by British forces during one of the war's most significant early battles.
