Description

Father Browne was sent to Australia for health reasons having suffered gassing in World War I. Available in paperback this volume presents Father Browne's portrait of post-war Australia. It gives a sense of the palpable optimism in the developing cities of Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth, and the sweat and toil in the Outback with its primitive shops and canvas settlements.
