SYDNEY MORNING HERALD: "No man ever entered on a better fight with his
fellow citizens, with the Governors, with the British Government, with
the scientists, with the judicial authorities, indeed with almost
every authority that was there to be fought, than John Macarthur when
he undertook single-handed the great fight which finally established
the wool industry in Australia."

_LIFE OF CAPTAIN MATTHEW FLINDERS, R.N._
By ERNEST SCOTT, Professor of History in the University of Melbourne,
author of "Terre Napol�on" etc. With numerous portraits, maps,
manuscripts in facsimile, etc. Cloth gilt, 21s. (_postage 6d._)
THE BULLETIN: "Will take its place as one of the great biographies in
our language. The inexplicable fact that hitherto no full biography of
the first man to circumnavigate Australia has appeared is also a
fortunate fact. Flinders has waited a century for his biographer, and
it was worth this silence of a hundred years to find Ernest Scott....
And to this fervor of research must be added Ernest Scott's lucid
literary style and his interest in the personal side of his subject.
Equipment, style, sympathy, and his subject combine to make a
brilliant achievement in biography.... A word must in mere justice be
added in praise of the publishers. The appearance of the book is
worthy of its contents."

association with Australia is a most important contribution to our
history. The illustrations are from authentic sources and very
interesting.
