by D’Arcy Niland

Michael Joseph, 1963, [First Edition], hardcover, dustjacket

Very Good Condition, a little edge and shelf wear, a little rubbing and bumping to edges and corners, ex-library with stamps to front endpaper, publishers’ pages and title page, stickers and stamps to back endpapers, tape residue to covers, price-clipped dustjacket shows some edge and shelf wear with some rubbing, bumping and chipping, closed and re-enforced tears, discolouration to jacket (see photographs)

“This superb collection of stories presents a raw and authentic picture of life in the Australian outback – vigorous and harsh, lonely, sometimes heartbreaking.  The people and the land itself come compellingly alive to the reader under the spell of D’Arcy Niland’s writing.”
