'The Barry children, living with their parents by a small sheep station in the Blue Mountains, declare war against all strangers, especially commercial travellers. The devices to which they resort, and the complications that arise from their daring strategy and tactics, make up an exciting and entertaining yarn. It has plenty of local color to increase its charm for Australian readers. There are many amusing illustrations by H. Radcliffe Wilson'. Source:
