Book Description
Excerpt from The Kidnapped Squatter: And Other Australian Tales With this money in his pocket, and double its value in experience stowed away somewhere, he determined to begin the world anew. He chose the colony in which our scene is laid as the most likely place in which to better his prospects, and here he arrived in the year 1840. He leased a small station, stocked it with sheep and cattle, throve apace, and at the period when our tale begins was one of the most extensive squatters in the country.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Squatter's Bairn Readers of this tale will turn in vain to the map of South Australia in order to find Bannockburn, Waramba, or Eaulieu: but they will discover an ever increasing number of places where shrewd and patriotic men of the type of Alexander Grant are winning, in rich profusion, "the kindly fruits of the earth" from deep soil which was once regarded as irresponsive to culture, and everywhere the cultivator's efforts are aided and seconded by enlightened and broad-minded legislation. I desire to record my sense of indebtedness to the South Australian Government for facilities of travel and investigation freely and liberally placed at my disposal.
