The world’s most effective fighting force was not led by Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan, or Napoleon. In all of history, only one class of warrior has ever gone undefeated for over two hundred years – despite almost continuous engagement and virtually always against overwhelming odds. The horses they rode were beyond comparison in terms of stamina, courage, and strength and their swords have been described as the finest cutting tools ever used in war. Indeed, the mere sight of these men approaching a battlefield was often enough to send an enemy fleeing.This is the story of how a unique and disciplined cavalry developed its most intimidating assets – groups of men that actually bore giant wings as they rode into battle and wielded weapons capable of scratching the sky.
