AbstractHistoryArchive Description

In 1933 The Huon Times was renamed The Huon and Derwent Times, with the change coinciding with an additional section within the newspaper targeting readership in the Derwent Valley region. Publication was suspended by the Board of Directors in 1942 when wartime rationing made publication too difficult. The hope was that due to it would be reinstated at the resumption of peace.

The Whip-Hand, Henry B. Raine , single work novel thriller
'This story gives a vivid portrayal of the spirit still animating the ex-members of the historical A.I.F. It is not a war story, but a well-written account of the adventures of a few hard-case ex-soldiers and their trials and troubles since their return from the great war. Reading it, one is impressed by the stark realism of the characters and with the natural course of the love interest which runs so charmingly thoughout the story. The underworld characters are true to life and in no wise overdrawn, while the human interest is maintained throughout.' Inside back cover of The Lash End (1933). E. Morris Miller's Australian Literature From its Beginnings to 1935 (1940): 791 comments: 'In The Whip-Hand some down-and-out Anzacs make good use of a first prize lottery ticket and protect a girl against a gang of drug-runners.'

E. Morris Miller's Australian Literature From its Foundations to 1935 (1940): 791 comments: 'In Lash-End some ex-soldiers run down Chinese smugglers in Sydney.'
