Book Description
Secondhand. Near fine condition.
Originally published as two books - Great Australian Stories and Larrikins, Bush Tales and Other Great Australian Stories.
It takes a certain character to make a living in the Australian bush. In the most difficult situations, laughter often comes to the rescue. Here are pioneers and battlers, convicts and settler's children, and a land that tests them with fire, flood and drought, in stories resonant with Australia's distinctive wry humour. (back cover)
