A Short History of the Royal Navy, 1217-1815. Volume II, 1689-1815


Overview

Dawn breaks over dew-laden lawns, and the hush of the garden is broken by the fluting call of a magpie. In these quietly luminous poems, the pulse of rural Australia-its birds, its seasons, its ever-shifting light-comes alive with rare intimacy and clarity. Drawing on the subtle beauty of the Australian countryside, the verses capture not only the riotous song of native birds but also the gentle stirrings of wind through gum leaves, the fragrance of wattle in bloom, and the contemplative quiet of garden paths at dusk. Each poem is suffused with a profound affection for Australian flora and the landscapes that shape the nation's identity, offering readers a vivid sense of place and a deep-rooted connection to nature. This collection stands as a testament to an era when poetry about gardens and the bush was both a celebration and a meditation, revealing the intricate relationship between people and the land. The work's gentle humour, keen observation, and musical language evoke the rhythms of early twentieth-century life, inviting reflection on the fleeting beauty of the seasons and the enduring solace found in nature's cycles. Whether evoking the vibrant calls of Australian birds or the quiet hush of a garden at rest, these verses resonate with anyone who finds inspiration in the natural world. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For readers drawn to bush poetry, the Australian landscape, and the lyrical celebration of rural life, this is a work to savour and preserve.
