Description

War Horses of WWI is the atypical and deeply moving true story of the million British horses who served in World War I. It’s told the usage of rare archival materials and testimony, combined with the recent historical research.

The story begins with the mass call-up of horses from each farm in Britain and follows their journey through the war. In an era of mechanized trench warfare, it was once the hardworking horses hauling guns, ammunition and food to the front line troops who were so crucial. When the war ended, only 60,000 horses made it back to Britain and essentially the most famous war horse to go back in glory was once Warrior. His story, like the million other British horses who served, must never be forgotten.
