Item description from seller

Sterling condition softcover copy, with unfurled tips, tight binding, and clean internals, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear, just a bit of rubbing to bright blue panels. 112 pp., and replete with black-and-white illustrations. Maynard's fine little social history challenges the myth that Australia's Indigenous people have had little involvement with horses and horse-racing. Maynard's written chapters on Peter St Albans, Rae Johnstone, David Hugh, 'Darby' Munro, Merv Maynard, Frank Reys, Norm Rose, Richard Lawrence, 'Darby' McCarthy, Leigh-Anne Goodwin and others. Notes, bibliography and index.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.

Store description

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana. Structure, Verses, Agency Books…
