". . . and the ___ is history!" (4)

I believe the answer is:

rest

(Other definitions for rest that I've seen before include "Surplus" , "'''God ... ye, merry gentlemen'' (carol) (4)'" , "Support for putting things on" , "Take a breather - (the) others" , "Inactivity" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
