Drum Horse in the Fountain. & Other Tales of Heroes and Rogues in the Guards, Hardback/Anthony Weldon

The public perception of the Guards is of soldiers used for just ceremonial duties. The Drum Horse in the Fountain demonstrates how far from the mark is this image. It captures the careers, accomplishments, follies and the occasional crimes of over three hundred men who have served in the seven Regiments of the British sovereign's personal troops.
