1 comments about Riding Into War: The Memoir of a Horse Transport Driver, 1916-1919 (New Brunswick Military Heritage Series).
- Riding Into War is a memoir written in 1964 after the author had travelled to France to revisit its old battlefields. It was written with the intention of leaving a record for future members of his family, but fortunately, they have since felt it important enough to make this memoir available to a wider audience.
The author first enlisted with the 145th Battalion, CEF, but this unit was broken up for drafts for existing frontline units. So just a few weeks prior to Vimy, the author found himself in France a member of the 26th Battalion. However, he soon volunteered for machine gun training and was therefore re-assigned to the 14th Canadian Machine Gun Company. But instead of manning a machine gun, he was detailed to transport duty, a task that he would continue to perform until war's end.
Riding Into War therefore provides us with an account of the war from the perspective of one of the tens of thousands of men who functioned primarily behind the lines, but whose duties were still essential and also quite dangerous.
