This is the story of the last mounted American troops to see action in battle, when, in 1941, six-hundred men and their horses held off the Japanese invasion of Luzon in the Philippines just long enough to allow General Douglas MacArthur's forces to withdraw to Bataan. This stirring account of the Philippine campaign is military history at its best.
