Dust jacket has small tears at top right corner, now protected in a plastic covering. Australians of vastly varying types are the subject of Keith Willey's book. Some are independent and individualistic, like the old Hawkesbury fisherman, the horsebreakers of the outback and the men and women who live in isolation in the far north of Queensland.Others are men of dogged courage, such as the surf lifesavers who brave shark-infested waters and the young soldiers on a Vietnam patrol.Willey includes his experiences as a witness at Ronald Ryan's execution.Humour and nostalgia, eccentricities and idealism, action and drama all have a place in a book that shows many different aspects of a big country.

Camel drivers, river skippers, shanty-keepers, blade-shearers, fossickers - these have vanished from the Australian scene and following them into the shadows are the swagmen, crocodile-shooters, buffalo-hunters, old-time drovers and many other outback types. George Farwell has worked, lived and yarned with many of these vanishing Australians. He vividly recalls all their colour and character. (book flap).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.Andrew Peacock is the most controversial figure on the conservative side of Australian politics. His recent defeat by Malcolm Fraser for the leadership of the Parliamentary Liberal Party was far from being the rout intended by Fraser. And his charisma is such that many political commentators suggest that the Liberals cannot win the next election without him in the Ministry. .This absorbing account of one of the most fascinating men in Australian politics was written from the inside; Peacock agreed to tape record more than 30 hours of interviews with the authors. No more definitive work on the man who may shape Australia's destiny exists. (book flap).
