2 y separately published work icon 'Go It! Brothers!!' Alice Guerin Crist , 1930 single work children's fiction children's 'The novel follows new boy, Cyril O'Hara, or "Ginger" as he is otherwise known, for three years as he attends St Mary's, a Christian Brothers School. Crist based "Go It! Brothers!!" on her two sons, Dick and Terry's schooling at St Mary's Christian Brothers College in Toowoomba, incorporating many local characters and events into the story. [...] Cyril, the hero, is a delicate boy from a troubled home. His overly strict father is away in America, and his frivolous mother is being led astray by her irreligious neighbours. An accident causes Cyril to overcome his delicate constitution and leads to a change in his mother's behaviour. When Cyril's father returns from America he regrets his hardness and they reconcile' (Rachel Crawford, Bonza Schooldays).
