Norwegian photographer Glenn Røkeberg documents British Household Cavalry in new book

After nearly two years with the British Army's Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, Norwegian photographer Glenn Røkeberg released 'Trusted Guardians: Inside the Mounted Regiment' through Unicorn last week. Since 1660, this regiment has acted as the official bodyguard for the U.K. monarch. Røkeberg's striking black-and-white images portray everyday activities, such as training exercises and stable duties, highlighting the themes of discipline and precision. The book delves into the regiment's unique position as both a ceremonial and operational force, examining the bond between horse and rider. Many recruits start without prior riding skills and undergo rigorous training. It features several individuals, including Corporal of Horse James Harvey and Captain Henry Tregear, while also showcasing the regiment's organization beyond ceremonial events.
