1 y separately published work icon Henry Lawson : A Selection Henry Lawson , Drew Forsythe , Wyn Roberts , Don Barker , Roger Cardwell , Ultimo : ABC Books , 2013 Z1926162 2013 selected work short story 'Lawson is best remembered as one of Australia's greatest poets and story writers. As either realist or romancer, Henry Lawson was described in his own lifetime as the 'first articulate voice of the real Australia', later to become fondly known as the 'bard of the bush'. His death in 1922 left Australia with a wealth of literary works unequalled by any artist. In this selection of short stories, accompanied by classical music, Lawson captures the true Australian spirit of his fellow countrymen.' (Publisher's blurb)
11 60 y separately published work icon A Fortunate Life A. B. Facey , 1980 (Manuscript version)14731177 14731171 1980 single work autobiography (taught in 4 units)

'Born in 1894, Albert Facey lived the rough frontier life of a sheep farmer, survived the gore of Gallipoli, raised a family through the Depression and spent sixty years with his beloved wife, Evelyn. Despite enduring hardships we can barely imagine today, Facey always saw his life as a "fortunate" one. A true classic of Australian literature, his simply written autobiography is an inspiration. It is the story of a life lived to the full – the extraordinary journey of an ordinary man.' (Penguin Australia abstract)
