The book explores the transition from horse-mounted reconnaissance to mechanized operations in the U.S. Army, starting with World War I. It examines the Cavalry's vital role in reconnaissance and the challenges posed by emerging technologies that threatened its relevance. Through a detailed analysis of debates and experiments leading to World War II, the narrative highlights how, despite some successful missions, the Cavalry ultimately recognized the horse's obsolescence in modern warfare.
