Graham WintonGraham's lifelong interest in and study of military, social and landscape history has given him an understanding of military horses and their supply. This was the focus of his Ph.D thesis, 'Horsing the British Army 1875-1923'. He has had a number of rticles published on horses in the First World War, mechanisation and army transport system. This book is a culmination of many years of research and experiences. He has organised many study tours to the battlefields of the First World War, taking veterans back to France, often for their first time. As a result, he has been privileged to spend time with them and listen to their memories of horses and the landscapes over which they operated. Having had experience of carriage driving, working with heavy horses and riding over a number of battlefields, Graham can combine a detailed knowledge of historical materials and sources, with a practical understanding of horses in the landscape. Graham retired in 2008 as Principal of a College of Adult Education to concentrate on research, publishing and tutoring. He is a part-time tutor with the University Of Cambridge Institute Of Continuing Education and has lectured in the USA and extensively in England. He has recently been elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. Read More Read Less
