Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Leader of Light Horse: Life of Hodson of Hodson´s Horse Among the men who fought and bled in their country´s service during the flood-tide of the Indian Mutiny, few names shone with a steadier and more inspiring lustre than that of William S. R. Hodson, the prince of scouting officers, the bold and skilful leader of Hodson´s Horse. From the middle of May to the close of September 1857 the fame of his achievements rang daily louder in the field force which Barnard led from Karnâl to the siege of Delhi. During the next six months he contrived to add some new and noteworthy services to a record already blazing with heroic deeds. Dying as a brevet-major in the prime of his strenuous manhood, he had already won for himself a proud place on the honour-lists of our long island story.
