We Rest Here Content is not the history of the Imperial Light Horse Regiment - that was written by the regiment’s Intelligence Officer, Lieutenant George Fleming Gibson and published in 1937 as The Story of the Imperial Light Horse in the South African War 1899-1902. We Rest Here Content approaches the subject of the I.L.H. from a different viewpoint. It looks at all the known monuments and memorials as well as other accounts of I.L.H. involvement in the war.--
