    WWI BRITISH CAVALRY TRAINING MANUAL, 1915 EDITION
    Excellent example of this hard to find manual with wartime dates. Originally printed in 1912, this is the 1915 updated version produced while the war was in its second year. this nice manual has 375 pages of information on horsemanship and training as well as tactics and cavalry organization and  weapons including the 1908 sword, the Lance, SMLE rifle and machineguns. It also covers horse artillery, night maneuvers and many other interesting topics.
    Overall measurements are approximately 4.25 inches by 5.25 inches and about 3/4 of an inch thick.    It is in very fine condition with no rips or tears to the pages or cover. The inside binding is a little loose but still well connected. The spine is slightly faded but still retains the gold printed title. An excellent addition to your WWI collection or for those interested in the history of the British Cavalry.
    Yet another box with an eclectic mix of stored items has surfaced.
    This one has some old US coins, more car parts, some military items, a few 12 inch GI Joe figures and accessories, some cell phones and electronic items, men’s and women’s clothing items among other things. Please check all my other auctions for items of interest. Thanks for looking!
