‎MADMAN'S BEND‎

‎London: UK: William Heinemann Ltd 1963. First Edition. Publishers green boards with gold lettering at spine very minor wear. Front endpaper has 4 small tape remains of what looks as if it once held a photo else a near fine copy in near fine dust jacket price clipped. William Lush is a drunk and wife-beater and having savagely assaulted his wife he drives from his sheep station to the nearby town for a bender. On his return he runs out of petrol on the main road and walks to his farmhouse to get more. But he has beaten Jill's mother one to many times and Jill is waiting with a rifle for him to come back home. The doors and windows are locked and barred and when he discovers he can't get into the house he takes an axe to the offending front door. Jill fires a warning shot into the ceiling and then fires at the door when Lush spews abuse and the axe hits the door again. The night goes quiet and Jill expects to find Lush injured or dead outside the door come morning. But there is no sign of him the next day. And when Jill's mother dies from her injuries the police become involved. They don't know however if they are looking for a drunken murderer sleeping off a binge or the body of a murdered man. A vividly described flood helps to bring the mystery into clearer focus--but at the same time it threatens to make a solution impossible. "This novel is one of Upfield's major accomplishments. Bony's determined search no matter where guilt falls is fascinating. This book is Upfield at his best." --- from The Spirit of Australia by Ray Browne. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine.

‎Red Cedar. The Tree of Australia's History.‎

‎Sydney: Reed 1988. 204pp index bibliography numerous bw & colour ills. Or olive cloth in pictorial jacket. Slight rubbing to bottom edge of boards. Spine panel of jacket very slightly faded. The search for the beautiful timber of the red cedar led to the opening up of coastal districts and hinterland and paved the way for later permanent settlements. Few of the present generation have seen the tree growing yet there was a time when it was a familiar feature of the landscape. Today not even a stump remains over hundreds of kilometers of the coastal strip. The cedar getter has gone but they played an important part in the development of Australia. This book pays tribute to these men - the advance guard of settlement along the whole of Australia's east coast. An important book that has become extremely scarce very quickly. Second Printing.
