| Opplysninger | Dette er den sanne historien om en hest som ble trenet opp til å hente ut skadde soldater fra slagmarken under 1. verdenskrig. Det er også skrevet en roman om hesten og laget en film om ham.. - Warrior is the true story of the thoroughbred horse Winston Churchill's great heroic friend, Jack Seely, took to France in 1914. They both survived five years of bombs and bullets to lead a cavalry charge in 1918 before returning home where they rode on together until 1938, their combined ages (70 + 30) totalling 100. The book tells the whole history of Warrior from his birth on Isle of Wight to his amazing life as a famous war horse and how a combination of both the horse's extraordinary character and some unbelievable twists of fate, helped him survive a war which claimed the lives of 8 million horses.
