A critical biography of the popular 1920s novelist G. B. Lancaster (the pen name of Edith Lyttleton), this book tells the moving story of her life and work. Sturm paints a fascinating picture of the harsh experience of a woman writer in the first half of the 20th century whose economic circumstances shaped much of her output but who struggled nonetheless to move beyond the limits of potboilers toward more serious and original work.

This publication focuses on the Gallery's collection of 46 Streeton works ranging from Sandrige (painted on cigar-box wood in 1884) through to his late canvas In a London garden c1934. Tracing Streeton's career, the book tells how he painted his youthful works of the 1880s and 90s alongside artist friends Charles Condor and Tom Roberts--camping in a farmhouse overlooking the Yarra River at Heidelberg, near Melbourne, and then (with Roberts) on the shores of Sydney harbour. He painted in London from 1897, before returning to spend the last two decades of his life working in Melbourne, where his late work evoked a peaceful pastoral Australia.

Paddy Cahill of Oenpelli is the story of a unique twentieth-century Territorian. At times a racehorse owner and jockey, a buffalo-hunter and pastoralist, Paddy Cahills contribution to Northern Territory life also includes farming on his Oenpelli property. Here he experimented in growing a range of fruit and vegetables while employing Aboriginal workers, farming and helping run the property. A colourful writer, his letters to Baldwin Spencer, from which Spencer drew much information for his own now-famous writings, form the basis for this examination of a rugged frontiersman, including his relationship with the Northern Territory Aboriginal peoples; their languages and culture.
