These are verses that came to me in this dreadful war time amid the cares and labors of a heavy task. Two of the poems, "A Scrap of Paper" and "Stand Fast," were written in 1914 and bore the signature Civis Americanus—the use of my own name at the time being impossible. Two others, "Lights Out" and "Remarks about Kings," were read for me by Robert Underwood Johnson at the meeting of the American Academy in Boston, November, 1915, at which I was unable to be present.

They arranged to have an argument in the Weekly Bulletin, and since they were being paid by the word, this let them fire back and forth, being sent beer money with each salvo. A couple of other poets also joined in, and their work is seminal to the development of the Bush ethos in Australia. The first eight files are the original form of the poems, and the second eight are later republications by the authors, in their own collections. (Summary by Timothy Ferguson)

History remembers certain things a certain way. Henry de Berk investigates what gets left out. Long-form documentaries on crime, power, and the stories we tell ourselves about both. Not to shock. Not to sell a theory. But to follow the evidence where it actually leads — and sit honestly with what it doesn't resolve. New episodes on the cases history got wrong, the myths that stuck, and the truth underneath that's usually more unsettling. For people who know the popular version. And want something more honest.

Hunting otter is now illegal, but there are still hunts in England along the same rivers as before...

Shaw was also instrumental in keeping the unusual title of the book, of which Davies himself was ...
