Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under the Street Lamp: Vignettes of Australian Bush Life Much of the literature dealing with Australian bush life has represented, and for the most part, faithfully, the rougher, and it may be said the coarser and lower, elements in the charac ter of the back-blocks worker. But every one who knows the true Australian bushman knows that he has another side. Against the almost universal indulgence in drink, gambling, profanity, and general rowdyism, must be placed many noble characteristics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Webb's End: Australian Bush Life The officer in command of the detachment was an acquaintance, stood on the outskirts, watching with a certain interest. Presently passers-by and street-loafers, coming up stragglingly, more or less surrounded him. The detachment went bending round a corner a little way off, and then the last man disappeared. The gentleman turned to one side rather quickly with a smile and an exclamation to himself, and felt a tug at his fob. He at once looked down, at the same time receiving from behind a shove that threw him up against a man who was standing in front of him. In a moment it ﬂashed across the gentleman's mind that he had been robbed, and his one idea was to see and catch the robber He recovered himself and turned round sharply. A few yards from him he saw moving quickly away out of the slowly dispersing crowd, a tall man With broad sloping shoulders and a slouch hat.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tallangetta, the Squatter's Home, Vol. 1 of 2: A Story of Australian Life IN these volumes it has been my object to depict the various phases of Australian life and character more fully than could be done in my Two Years in Victoria. Perhaps the. Reader will be surprised to find in the Bush and in the competitive hurry of the new colonial city some of the personages who figure here. But it requires only a brief sojourn in a colony like that of Victoria to remind you that its population is made up of the overﬂowings of England and many other countries, and that these overﬂow ings have carried with them every possible theory and practice, every idea, feeling, passion, speculation, pursuit, amusement, and imagination which are fer menting in the old countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Australian Life I was walking along George Street, Brisbane, last Monday in the afternoon when I suddenly ran upon my friend Power. Power is a man worth knowing. I suppose no one has been along the Australian coast, from Perth to Port Darwin, more Often than he has. Is there a little port-town all round that he has not been in? Is there a river, navi gable or unnavigable, that finds its way into Australian seas. That he has not ﬂoated on? His stock Of tales is the largest and best Of anyone I know, and he has a sort of humorous kindliness about him, a genuine humanistic tolerance and appreciation, which has made him the friend of all sorts and conditions of men, women, and animals. He has the unctuous pleasure of discovering and understanding every oddity, and the light of this pleasure beams up in his eyes and on his lips and in his whole face as he sits Opposite some abnormal piece of humanity in a cosy corner, just as when he pauses from his submarine work in his diver's dress to observe the antics Of some eccentric denizen of the deep.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Squatter's Dream a Story of Australian Life He was a great gardener, and had the best fruit trees and some of the best ﬂowers in that part of the country. At all odd times, that is, early in the morning before it was time to dress for breakfast, in afternoons when he had been' out all day, and generally when he had nothing particular to do, he was accustomed to dig patiently, and to plant and prune, and drain and trench, in this garden of his. He was a strong fellow, who had always lived a steady kind of life, so that he had a constitution utterly unimpaired, and spirits to match. These last were so good that he generally rose in the morning with the kind of feeling which every boy experiences during the holidays - that the day was not long enough for all the enjoyable occupations which were before him, and that it was incumbent on him to rise up and enter into possession of these delights with as little loss of time as might be.

He generally took refuge from his wife's attacks in its soothing inﬂuence. You do, Burton - you know as well as I do.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sister Sorrow: A Story of Australian Life The Beginning began at breakfast time, that first morning after our arrival at the Bellevue Hotel in Leichardt's Town. The whole family of us had come down from Barolin - Father, my stepmother Clara, my half-sisters Bee and Bel, myself and Dolores Lloyd, the girls' governess. We did not usually descend in so large a body for the winter session. But The Bunyas - our house on Emu Point - had been let to some rich barbarians from the back blocks for the summer. I suppose that, after the climate of the Never-Never Land, Leichardt's Town seemed cool to them, whereas we Leichardtstonians were only too glad to stay up in the Ubi mountains from November till March. It was the end of March now. This was the first time, however, that we had let The Bunyas. The fact was that drought was killing cattle in hundreds and thousands on the northern stations and Clara thought the barbarians' rent might help to square accounts. That was one reason for our all going together to the Bellevue. A week's rent would cover the extravagance of our day or two at the hotel, and, by bringing the whole family, we should be saved a second sixty-mile buggy-journey. Also, there was shopping to be done. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Bad Company: And Other Stories Bill hardwick was as fine a specimen of an Australian as you could find in a day's march. Active as a cat and strong withal, he was mostly described as 'a real good all-round chap, that you couldn't put wrong at any kind of work that a man could be asked to do. He could plough and reap, dig and mow, put up fences and huts, break in horses and drive bullocks he could milk cows and help in the dairy as handily as a woman. These and other accomplishments he was known to possess, and being a steady, sensible fellow, was always welcome when work was needed and a good man valued. Besides all this he was the fastest and the best shearer in the district of Tumut, New South Wales, Where he was born, as had been his father and mother before him. SO that he was a true Australian in every sense of the word. It could not be said that the British race had degenerated as far as he was concerned. Six feet high, broad-chested, light ﬂanked, and standing on his legs like a game-cock, he was always ready to fight or work, run, ride or swim, in fact to tackle any muscular exercise in the world at the shortest notice.
