AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The Black Opal centres around a gem found by a farmer's son in a cave, known to the blacks in the west of New South Wales. His rustic fiancee is lured to the stage by an actor, who obtains the opal and involves the young man in her murder. The pseudonym is said to be that of a Sydney journalist.'

- E. Morris Miller, Australian Literature, 1940
