AbstractHistoryArchive Description
From Mary Gilmore's introduction: 'Imogene - an Odyssey is a record of impressions and reflections in verse, during journeys across four continents and over many countries, by one whose good fortune it was to have visited historic scenes of remote antiquity ...; to have played a part in some of the great events of his own day ...; to have explored new lands in the Niger hinterland ...; to have lived for years among Hausas, Arabs, and pagan tribes; and to have acquired as close a familiarity with African forest, Mesopotamian desert, and Australian bush, as with the streams and woodlands about Brede Place, his ancestral Sussex home ...' (vii).
