"The bones of British soldiers lie scattered far and wide. In every portion of the globe, their unmarked graves are strewed on mountain and plain, by stream and forest, by swamp and desert; silent witnesses of their devotion to their Sovereign and country. But they have not died in vain, if the remembrance of their achievements survives, to swell the hearts and nerve the arms of their successors, and to remind their countrymen what they owe to their sufferings and their valour." Colonel John Biddulph gives this historical account of the four cavalry regiments in the British army that have borne the number 'Nineteen' and of the campaigns in which they served, from the time of the first inception in 1759.
