Publishers Description: This was the last of three books published by Australian poet Adam Lindsay Gordon. This volume was published in Melbourne on the day before the poet committed suicide. He was not very well known in his lifetime (except as a horse rider) but after his death, this volume received positive reviews in numerous newspapers, and Gordon would come to be known as "Australias National Poet" in the years between 1870 and WWI.
