Sgt. Reckless : America's war horse
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The story of the once famous horse, recognized as late as 1997 by Life magazine as one of America's great heroes -- the greatest war horse in American history, in fact -- has unfortunately been largely forgotten. But author Robin Hutton is set to change all that. Not only has she been the force behind recognizing Reckless with a monument at the National Museum of the Marine Corps and at Camp Pendleton, but she has now put between hard covers the full story, the rousing -- sometimes comic, sometimes tragic -- life of this four-legged war hero who hauled ammunition to frontline Marines and inspired them with her relentless, and reckless, courage -- Book jacket.
