Galloping at Everything: British cavalry in the Peninsular War w/Marcus Cribb (Ep.19)

<p>The British cavalry of the Napoleonic wars has often been criticised, including by the Duke of Wellington himself who accused them of "galloping at everything". But was the criticism fair? How were they organised? How were they recruited? Did they perform well? In the latest episode of the Redcoat History Podcast I talk with Marcus Cribb (manager of Apsley House) to try and answer all of these questions.</p> <p>If you enjoy the episode please subscribe and leave a comment to hep the Redcoat History Podcast to grow. </p> <p>Marcus can be found on twitter as <a href='https://twitter.com/mcribbHistory'>@mcribbhistory </a></p> <p>Please subscribe to the channel and share the video.
