Most British scholars of cavalry! I mentioned this regiment on page one of this discussion, by the way.
Perhaps you show a bias too much for the Continental and should temper some of your post Medieval cavalry comments with a wider reading of the Peninsular, Crimean and Near Eastern campaigns of the British Army(most of which occur in the Victorian period; some of which are against comparable enemies faced by ancient cavalry)?
