y separately published work icon Blood Tracks of the Bush : An Australian Romance Simpson Newland , 1900 single work novel

His novel explicitly deals with the massacres of Aborigines by settlers. It was less successful than his earlier work, "partly because inferior, but also because he courageously and accurately portrayed horrific mass-murders of Aborigines by police and pastoralists. The public was not ready for such honesty."
