And Other Verses
In his affectionate and gently humorous verses John O'Brien sang of farming life and of the life of Irish settlers in Australia - at home, on the land, and at the Church upon the Hill that is the centre of their lives.
This volume combines O'Brien's two books of verse, 'Around the Boree Log' and 'The Parish of St Mels'. It is verse that is simple and sincere and lit with a kindly understanding of the lives it chronicles.
