A detailed regimental history chronicling the formation, campaigns, and character of one of the British Army’s most distinguished cavalry regiments.

This volume explores the long and eventful lineage of the 14th/20th King’s Hussars, formed in 1922 through the amalgamation of the 14th King’s Hussars and the 20th Hussars.

Oatts, a serving officer and military historian, provides a lively and authoritative narrative that spans the regiment’s involvement in major conflicts: the Napoleonic Wars, Indian campaigns, and First World War, to their Second World War service in North Africa and Italy, and later deployments during the Cold War.
