 THE GOLDEN TREASURY OF AUSTRALIAN VERSE.


 * "It is a vast improvement on its predecessor. Certain copyright restrictions have been removed, and Mr. Stevens has been allowed to help himself to some excellent work which was inaccessible to him three years ago…Mr. Stevens has shown himself once more a man of excellent taste and discrimination, and has laid lovers of poetry who also love Australia under a heavy obligation to him for this most pleasant book."

FAIR GIRLS AND GRAY HORSES, WITH OTHER VERSES.


 * "Its verses draw their natural inspiration from the camp, the cattle trail, and the bush; and their most characteristic and compelling rhythms from the clatter of horses' hoofs."


 * "Nothing could be better than his bush ballads, and he writes of horses with the fervour of Lindsay Gordon."

HEARTS OF GOLD, AND OTHER VERSES.


 * "Will be welcomed by all who love the stirring music and strong masculine feeling of this poet's verse. Mr. Ogilvie has gone back to Scotland, but his verse written in Australia lives still, and is not forgotten when the camp fires are burning."
