(Subject: World War I - General) The Welsh Horse Yeomanry was formed in 1914, their Commanding Officer being a figure of some controversy. He was a cowboy, gold miner, hunter, and a playwright, but above all he was a Welsh Nationalist. He raised the Regiment almost single handedly, but his outspoken views antagonised powerful interests. This is the story of the subsequent scandal of his treatment, and his regiment's service in Palestine and on the Western Front in WWI.
