The Mounted Infantry had a short life spanning from the mid 1880's until disbanded in 1913. To continue the camaraderie of the corps, past surviving members formed the M.I Club and in 1936 decided to publish a short history based on Regimental records and personal reflections. The manuscript was almost complete at the start of WWII but was lost. Brigadier Standish G Craufurd undertook to rewrite the work using what material remained and his own resources. This book contains the unpublished manuscript, letters, and reminiscences and provides a unique and interesting record of the Mounted Infantry.
