"Written when our ancestors had a strong faith in the worth of facts as educative agents, and many educators believed that children's books should not only be morally improving, but should also set an example by offering only plain truth rather than mendacious flights of fancy. It gives a rare and authentic glimpse of life in the early years of Australia using the "catechism" technique which was much used for most of the nineteenth century, particularly in works aiming to disseminate knowledge. Within its limitations, the book does repesent a real attempt to communicate to children some of qualities of the Australian scene, and, within the self-imposed constraints of "truth", to offer relevant stories of high adventure." -- Introduction.
