Descripción:
Brisbane: St Lucia: University of Queensland Press (UQP), 1975. 1st p/b ed.. Paperback small octavo, very good condition, covers lightly scratched, pages lightly toned, minor edgewear. 300 pp. Semi-fictional stories that were originally published in 'The Bulletin' magazine, 1892. Obsessed with the inhuman monstrosities of Australia's convict system, William Astley (writing as 'Price Warung') took the outlines of history and coloured them with melodrama and farce to shock, delight, and sometimes disgust his many readers. These 17 stories reflect an attitude of the time: the convict was more sinned against than sinning. Edited by B. G. Andrews.

Descripción:
Uni of Queensland, Queensland, 1975. Edition Unstated. Softcover. Good Condition.

Spine has a reading crease. Covers have some shelf-wear, a few marks, as well as some bumping to corners and extremities. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.
