SYDNEY MORNING HERALD: "No man ever entered on a better fight with his fellow citizens, with the Governors, with the British Government, with the scientists, with the judicial authorities, indeed with almost every authority that was there to be fought, than John Macarthur when he undertook single-handed the great fight which finally established the wool industry in Australia."

_LIFE OF CAPTAIN MATTHEW FLINDERS, R.N._
By ERNEST SCOTT, Professor of History in the University of Melbourne, author of "Terre Napoleon" etc. With numerous portraits, maps, ma.n.u.scripts in facsimile, etc. Cloth gilt, 21s. (_postage 6d._)
THE BULLETIN: "Will take its place as one of the great biographies in our language. The inexplicable fact that hitherto no full biography of the first man to circ.u.mnavigate Australia has appeared is also a fortunate fact. Flinders has waited a century for his biographer, and it was worth this silence of a hundred years to find Ernest Scott....
And to this fervor of research must be added Ernest Scott's lucid literary style and his interest in the personal side of his subject.
Equipment, style, sympathy, and his subject combine to make a brilliant achievement in biography.... A word must in mere justice be added in praise of the publishers. The appearance of the book is worthy of its contents."

This story of Laperouse's work as an explorer and his close a.s.sociation with Australia is a most important contribution to our history. The ill.u.s.trations are from authentic sources and very interesting.
