Midnight | Mark Greenwood
1 post | 1 read
A foal is born at midnight, on the homestead side of the river. Coal black. Star ablaze. Moonlight in her eyes. On October 31, 1917, the 4th and 12th Regiments of the Australian Light Horse took part in one of the last great cavalry charges in history. Among the first to leap the enemy trenches was Lieutenant Guy Haydon riding his beloved mare, Midnight. This is their story.

This beautiful book was hard for me to read, I couldn't do it aloud. First they build a trust bond only to go to war and get separated. Then the battle. If you have a child that's fascinated by war, it's a good book, complete with bibliography and geography exploration opportunities. Not recommended for horse lovers triggered by the truth of what happens in a cavalry. I'm allergic to horses, but I love animals. 😢 😭 over here
