The 12 Greatest Cavalry Charges in British History – And Why They Mattered


Listen Later

There was a reason cavalry dominated battlefields for centuries. And today, we’re covering 12 of the greatest British cavalry charges in history—from the glorious to the reckless.

Stick around to the end to hear which one is my personal favourite.

What do you think? What did I miss? Salamanca could have been there, but as I am covering that battle in a few weeks it didn't seem right to include it.
