The true life story of a war horse told by himself with help from his master, Brigadier Walter Brooke. Includes many charming line drawings by Anne Bullen. This is the whole life story of Gladeye's life from his early memories in Ireland, where he was foaled, to prize-winning days at Richmond and Olympia: out to Flanders and Macedonia in the way; and back home again to hunting and polo and ploughing the red Devon earth. One of Gladeye's fondest friends was Princess Elisabeth. One year when he was showing at Olympia, she gave him twenty lumps of sugar. The story of Gladeye's adventures shows, as he intended, that "horses do love human beings who love them.".
