There is another IY reference;
"The Fifes in South Africa"
by 9176 I.Y.
Being a History of the Fife and Forfar Yeomanry in
the South African War, 1900 -1901.
In researching a man in that unit, I found the book to be very useful.

Harvey JR. 1908. Records of the Norfolk Yeomanry Cavalry to which is added the fencible and volunteer cavalry of the same county from 1780 to 1908. Together with some account of the 43rd and 44th Squadrons of Imperial Yeomanry…...South African War, 1900. Jarrolds, Norwich. 415 pp

It is FOC on google books and for the Boer War coverage, Harvey is much better than Bastin which is on the list. Its weakness is that Harvey was the CO of 43 Coy and the book is poor on 44 Coy. There is a roster for 43 Coy and there are photos of both companies' officers.
