Description:
In good condition - has some markings on spine due to wear - no dust jacket - has previous owner's name and address in front cover - due to differing weights of books, postage maybe adjusted at checkout.So, here at last is the story of Wongai, Wild White Man of Badu. It is the best I can do with the scanty scraps of material. But to delay longer would mean it would never be printed. Not that that would matter one iota, of course. However, the book may prove of passing interest to those interested in "flashes" from our Australian past. And to those interested in a tiny but colourful race of islanders, a race whose descendants today have reached the full climax of their ambition, to become "civilized" enough to even don uniforms in a "white man's war". But Time passes, like Wongai, like the islanders' culture of a thousand years, like history, like - everything.
