Cavalry; A Popular Edition Of "Cavalry In War And Peace", (Paperback)

A swift recon of the past, a clear eye on the present. Cavalry is a rare doorway into how 19th-century European warfare moved, struck, and learned to endure. This edition presents Friedrich von Bernhardi's Cavalry in War and Peace as more than a historical text: it is a masterclass in strategic thinking and practical insight. Framed as a military treatise and cavalry warfare manual, the work probes mobility, mounted shock tactics, and the broader arc of historical warfare analysis with reverence for method and craft. Readers will find its discussion seasoned by Clausewitz's influence and rooted in the realities of the Prussian empire era, offering both rigorous critique and evocative portrayal. It speaks to military history students and war college readers alike, while remaining accessible to curious general readers who relish a lucid, well-argued portrait of late nineteenth century Europe. Historically significant and culturally resonant, the volume sits at the crossroads of German cavalry classics and modern strategic study. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure that invites both casual readers and classic-literature collectors to engage with a pivotal moment in military thought.
