(Subject: Aviation - Pre World War II ) A memoir of the 1916-18 air war over Mesopotamia. The author was an RFC officer whose secondment to the Middle East in 1916, came as a relief after the squalor of the Somme. His account of his and his comrades' operations flying against Turkish and German aviators is dramatic and hugely informative. The narrative describes combined operations with army, and naval units operating along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and how Tennant survived being shot down in his DH4 aircraft.

The charge was the first made since trench warfare began, and it was the last. The regiment lost 50 casualties (nine dead); and 72 horses. This history of the famous Indian unit recounts the famous charge, and the rest of the Deccan Horse's war service, which included deployment in Palestine in 1918 and taking part in the capture of Damascus from the Turks.
