A Treasury of Australian Frontier Tales edited by Bill Wannan

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Some marks on tail edge front endpage. Dust jacket is in fair condition with significant tearing to spine. Dust jacket is now enclosed in a protector. Body text and binding are still very good.

For this anthology, Bill Wannan has cast his net wide - in time, he has covered the whole nineteenth century and part of the twentieth. His settings range from the wild uplands of Tasmania's Great Lake region to the sun-scorched plains west of Bourke in far outback New South Wales.

Some are already classics, others have been culled from long-defunct periodicals and rare out-of-print books, and others again have survived through generations only by word of mouth. (book flaps)
