This second volume of ’Gouger’ contains more of the early writings of Ion Idriess, many written under his various pseudonyms that were previously not located with the great story-teller. Most of these stories, articles and paragraphs have never been in book form until now, and are the result of much pain-staking research by Idriess scholar, Jim Bradly. As always with Idriess, these snippets from another age offer an extremely diverse range of topics as Idriess explored and prospected his way around Australia and its northern islands - life as seen through the eyes of a bushman, a soldier, a social commentator and above all else - a true-blue Australian.

En estos movimientos y escamoteos, el profesor Fabio Silva Vallejo nos propone de fondo una...
