Together, They Faced Hell is a powerful non-fiction narrative focusing on the bond between the men and their horses in Australia's Light Horse regiments of World War 1.These troopers were skilled horsemen, often from rural backgrounds, and many took their horses with them when they enlisted. What they faced was a hellish set of conditions as they fought the long-running Middle East campaign. Their bond was reinforced through the years of shared hardships and triumphs, and is a testament to the strength and fortitude of both human and horse.Sally E Cox is a lifelong horse lover and her book, while describing the progressing chapters of the war, focuses on the smaller interactions around the troopers and their horses and sharpens our understanding of how the men felt about their equine companions.Together, They Faced Hell contains a wealth of historic pictures which richly illustrate the wartime journey for human and horse alike.
