AustLit

'[T]he author again gives prominence to the Australian sentiment which runs through all his work, and at the end he brings the spirit of Australia into modern times by making his hero a member of the Air Force. The story concerns the hero's search for his father, whom he has lost through an accident in which they became separated. Throughout the narrative readers are told of the experiences of a man who has been fortunate enough to obtain efficient Instruction in riding and other station activities, and tuition which has developed in him a love of reading the best literature.'
