On Rabbits, Morality, etc. - Selected Writings of Walter Murdoch by Imre Salusinszky
Complete with a Foreword by Rupert Murdoch, this selected volume of Walter Murdoch’s writings covers the essay: his best-known form, as well as a little-known work about early Australian bush poets.
Walter Murdoch, a popular broadcaster and public speaker, was one of Australia’s bestselling twentieth-century writers. He published weekly essays in The Argus and other newspapers and his books sold in their tens of thousands.
Like all great essayists, Walter Murdoch was able to educate by entertaining; drawing unexpected and often quirky links between previously unconnected subjects.
Having been out of print for many years, this selection restores this wonderful writer’s work back into print for a new generation of readers, and will delight a generation of Australians who grew up reading Murdoch’s columns in the papers during the 1930s, 40s and 50s.
