For anyone interested in the cavalry of the Imperial German Army pre-1914 do yourself a big favour and check these books out. They are long out of print but can be picked up very cheaply secondhand.

Whilst on the subject of the Imperial German Army this is one is also recommended. It's quite a thin book but has plenty of uniform details and nicely illustrated for it's size.

If you're disappointed I'll refund the 75p cost myself.

Shipping to Canada is crazy....it’s amazon..phooey

I posted links to Amazon as it's easier but it might be worthwhile having a search closer to home.

True..but the pickings get slim our side of the water..of course my interests are more the context, historical implications vs uniforms...in the respect a book I found in a used book store in tiny village. Worlds Greatest War has been fun..published in 1916..in Canada..with photos predating trench warfare ..listing as well every canadian officer that had gone with the first expeditionary force..an object of history rather than book on history.
