In 1899, fiery Col.Aubrey Woolls-Sampson, Major Karri Davies, Sir Percy Fitzpatrick among others met in secret in Johannesburg to form a regiment of Colonial irregulars, to fight for the Uitlander cause-thus was born the famous Imperial Light Horse. This is their story, ranging from the South African War to the Second World War. This is no "dry as dust" history, because the author has brought to life so many stories of courage and valour of both Boer and Briton alike, that the book makes fascinating reading.
