Light Horse Boy

Light Horse Boy goes behind the scenes of the great Anzac legends for an intimate look at their experience of World War I.

In 1914 Jim and Charlie abandon the Australian outback for the excitement and adventure of the war to end all wars.

But in the Light Horse they quickly discover the brutal realities of life on the frontline. And nothing will ever be the same again.

Light Horse Boy features stunning charcoal sketches by Brian Simmonds alongside primary source documents and historical photos.
