2 - Into the Valley of Death
’Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do or die…’ Few moments in Britain’s long history have been celebrated and mythologised like the Charge of the Light Brigade, six hundred and sixty one men riding gloriously into the pages of history, their heroism recorded forever by Tennyson’s words. But what really happened on that autumn day? Was there any glory found on the stony ground of the Crimean peninsula? Who was to blame for the massacre that followed? And was it even a massacre?
