Excerpt from German Influence on British Cavalry, Vol. 5 This essay is meant to be read in connection with the facts and arguments adduced in my book of last year, "War and the Arme Blanche," with its Introduction by Field-Marshal Lord Roberts. From the nature of the case I have not been able to avoid a small measure of repetition, but I have done my best to confine myself to new ground. A word about my object in writing again. Contemporaneously with the publication of "War and the Arme Blanche," General von Bernhardi published in Germany his "Reiterdienst," and an English edition, translated by Major G. T. M. Bridges, D.S.O., under the title "Cavalry in War and Peace," appeared simultaneously in this country. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
