Summary
A dual biography of two prominent Australian poets: Henry Lawson and his best friend Jim Grahame. Lawson believed that Grahame's writing was far superior to his own. Written based on historical facts and from Grahame's own personal letters and diary entries handed down through the generations of his family, and passed over to the author to write this true account of a solid friendship. An interesting account of Lawson's life, Grahame's life, and their combined lives as good friends. It contains unpublished information on their joint trek from Bourke to Hungerford which was featured in both of their published poems
