Additional information
by W. H. L. Watson (Author), Despatch Rider (Author)
The two wheeled infantrymen of the British Army
Those interested in the First World War on the Western Front and the adventures of the motorcycle despatch riders of the British Army may be familiar with the writing of W. H. L. Watson. The author has also left us a riveting account of tank warfare, which is available in a Leonaur edition. Watson's war was indisputably varied, and in this rare and fascinating first-hand account, which was originally serialised in 'Blackwood's Magazine', he describes his time serving with British mounted infantry who rode into battle propelled by pedal-power. Although the text ends abruptly as though there may have been an intention to continued it, we assure readers that it is complete and is here supported by images which did not appear in the original edition.
Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
