AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Written as a novel but supported by a two page bibliography and featuring line drawings, photographs and maps, Ebenezer's Boss will be seen by many as the first, real exposition of the forces which set in motion and indeed the pace and attitudes of white settlement in this vast and ancient land.' (from 'A Synopsis', opp. publisher's page).
