Description:


Walter Murdoch, a popular broadcaster and public speaker, was one of Australia's bestselling twentieth-century authors. He published weekly essays in The Argus and other newspapers and his books sold in their tens of thousands. Complete with a Foreword by Rupert Murdoch, this selected volume of Walter Murdoch's writings covers the essay: his best-known form, as well as his biographical and other critical writing. Having been out of print for many years, this title restores Murdoch's wonderful work back into print for a new generation of readers. Like all great essayists, Walter Murdoch was able to educate by entertaining; drawing unexpected and often quirky links between previously unconnected subjects.
