Morton focuses on the conversion from the horse to the machine in the U.S. Armys ground reconnaissance operations. Beginning with WWI, he explains the Cavalrys contribution to reconnaissance and the ways in which new technologies threatened to make the branch obsolete. Morton traces the debate and experiments up through WWII when, despite a few successful missions, the Cavalry ultimately concluded that the horse had no place in modern warfare.
