Thousands of tourists visit Whitehall each year and gaze at the Horse Guards sentries, unaware of the rich history of the building and its guardians. The site of Horse Guards has been used for martial activity since the mid 16th century; where the sentries now stand, knights once competed to become Champion at Tilt. Brian Harwood presents an illustrated history of Horse Guards, as building and as institution, from its original purpose, guarding the entrance of the palace of Whitehall, to its present day military role.
