A delightfully illustrated humourous alphabet book that depicts rural life in Australia in the early Twentieth Century. Some examples of the controversial nature of the verses are:
A stands for Aboriginal
The settler out back
Were [sic] wise to avoid him
Or things will look "black". (p. 1)K stands for Kangaroo
As swift as the gale
There's a price on his head
For the soup in his tail. (p. 11)
