About this ebook

The Desert Mounted Corps was an army corps of the British Army of three mounted divisions during the First World War. These divisions comprised ANZAC Mounted Division, the Australian Mounted Division, and the Yeomanry Mounted Division. They operated in the Sinai and Palestine Campaign. The Desert Mounted Corps started with Australians, New Zealanders, British Yeomanry, Territorial Horse Artillery, and Indian Cavalry, with French Cavalry added to the final operations. This History begins with an account of the reorganization of the British Troops in the Egyptian area of the War when Sir Edmund Allenby took over authority in June 1917. It explains the struggles of the soldiers during the war, including several hardships faced by them due to the harsh weather conditions of the area. As work on cavalry tactics, it will be of great interest and value to the student of Military History. Lieut.-Col. Preston served his country by explaining that the horse-soldier was just as beneficial in modern warfare as in the past.
