Product Information
Among the British troops bound for the Black Sea in May 1854 was a young officer in the 5th Dragoon Guards, Richard Temple Godman, who sent home through the entire Crimea campaign many detailed letters to his family at Park Hatch in Surrey. Temple Godman went out at the start of the war, took part in the successful Charge of the Heavy Brigade at Balaklava and in other engagements, and did not return to England until June 1856, after peace had been declared. He took three very individual horses and despite all his adventures brought them back unscathed. Godman's dispatches from the fields of war reveal his wide interests and varied experiences; they range from the pleasures of riding in a foreign landscape, smoking Turkish tobacco, and overcoming boredom by donning comic dress and hunting wild dogs, to the pain of seeing friends and horses die from battles, disease, deprivation and lack of medicines. He writes scathingly about the skein if rivalries between the Generals ('a good many muffs among the chiefs'), inaccurate and 'highly coloured' newspaper reports and, while critical of medical inefficiency, regards women in hospitals as 'a sort of fanaticism'. Yet at other times he will employ the pen of an artist in describing a scene, or wax eloquent on the idiosyncrasies of horses. He is altogether a most gallant and sensitive young cavalryman, and deservedly went on to achieve high rank after the war. Always fresh and easy to read, his letters provide an unveiled picture of what it was really like to be in the Crimea. AUTHOR: Dick Warner is author of Passachendale and The Zeebrugge Raid and numerous other first rate histories. He wrote also the biographies of Auchinleck and Horrocks. He was the military obituary writer of The Daily Telegraph for many years. In World War2 he was a POW of the Japanese for 1,000 days. He died in 2000. *
