A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title.Author: Tony Barker Format: Paperback Discover the man who built the bedrock of Australian literature, letter by passionate letter. In 1886, a young Scot named George Robertson helped found the iconic firm Angus & Robertson. More than just a bookseller, Robertson became the visionary publisher who defined Australian letters for nearly half a century, championing an entire generation of writers. This lively account by Anthony Barker delves into Robertson's vast and fascinating correspondence, providing a privileged, behind-the-scenes look at the birth of a national literature. The letters, culled from four decades of archives, reveal the complex, often fiery relationships between the autocratic but generous Robertson and his legendary authors: Henry Lawson "Banjo" Paterson Miles Franklin Norman Lindsay C.J. Dennis Sometimes terse, often witty, always driven by a fierce dedication to quality, these exchanges chart the journey of Australian literature from colonial curiosity to national success, culminating in phenomenal triumphs like the publication of The Man from Snowy River. A unique and essential informal history, this volume offers a vivid portrait of the man who became the founding father of Australian publishing. Secondhand, Paperback.

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 2nd Edition. Good condition. Minor edgewear. Pages sunned. In a career spanning half a century, George Robertson published many of Australia's literary legends. With the phenomenal success of The Man from Snowy River in 1895, Angus & Robertson became Australia's most significant publisher. Anthony Barker's lively account of Robertson's career is interleaved with selected correspondence. Sometimes terse, often witty, cajoling and generous, the letters make for fascinating reading. Richly illustrated with drawing and photographs. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 001451
