These are verses that came to me in this dreadful war time amid the cares and labors of a heavy task. Two of the poems, "A Scrap of Paper" and "Stand Fast," were written in 1914 and bore the signature Civis Americanus—the use of my own name at the time being impossible. Two others, "Lights Out" and "Remarks about Kings," were read for me by Robert Underwood Johnson at the meeting of the American Academy in Boston, November, 1915, at which I was unable to be present. The rest of the verses were printed after I had resigned my diplomatic post and was free to say what I thought and felt, ...

This is a volume of poetry by Henry Lawson, the well-known Australian poet. Some of the poems in this collection are still widely taught in school, some others are not widely known at this time. All of them, however, paint vivid images of Australia around the turn of the last century. As The Academy put it in 1909, "These ballads (for such they mostly are) abound in spirit and manhood, in the colour and smell of Australian soil. They deserve the popularity which they have won in Australia, and which, we trust, this edition will now give them in England." - Summary by Carolin

This is a volume of late poetry by Australian poet Henry Kendall, published in 1880. The poems in this volume are prime examples of the style for which Kendall was famous, describing the Australian nature and landscape in poetic detail. Wikipedia quotes the Sydney Mail writing: "Sad songs though many of them be, they are full of great thoughts and lofty aspirations. You may dislike them because they are not all chanted in unison with the bright noontide hymn; but you cannot deny that they are all of the music that floats high above the level of earthly grossness, and that sings, if sometimes ...

This is a collection of early poetry by Australian poet Henry Kendall. The poems contained in this volume already reflect the particular style for which Kendall became famous later on: his poetry focussing on Australian nature. - Summary by Carolin

This is the short last book in Henry Kendall's collected poems. This book contains miscellaneous poems of the native-born Australian poet, written later in his life, including poems dedicated to other notable Australian writers, such as Adam Lindsay Gordon. - Summary by Carolin

Henry Kendall was the first Australian poet to draw his inspiration from the life, scenery and traditions of the country. In the beginnings of Australian poetry the names of two other men stand with his—Adam Lindsay Gordon, of English parentage and education, and Charles Harpur, born in Australia a generation earlier than Kendall. Harpur's work, though lacking vitality, shows fitful gleams of poetic fire suggestive of greater achievement had the circumstances of his life been more favourable. Kendall, whose lot was scarcely more fortunate, is a true singer; his songs remain, and are likely ...

One of the biggest secrets of the ages is this: thought is creative. Thought creates reality—no matter how much it might seem otherwise. This is the secret of power, success, love, and health. You shape your reality by shaping your thoughts. This is staggering and incredible, but it’s the truth. These twelve classic works all describe the true power of mind and how to make it work for you to achieve success and fulfillment in all areas of life: work, money, relationships, even luck.

In 1892, two of Australia's best poets came up with a scheme to make some money. They arranged to have an argument in the Weekly Bulletin, and since they were being paid by the word, this let them fire back and forth, being sent beer money with each salvo. A couple of other poets also joined in, and their work is seminal to the development of the Bush ethos in Australia. The first eight files are the original form of the poems, and the second eight are later republications by the authors, in their own collections. (Summary by Timothy Ferguson)

Thomas H. Huxley, an English biologist and essayist, was an advocate of the theory of evolution and a self-proclaimed agnostic. A talented writer, his essays helped to popularize science in the 19th century, and he is credited with the quote, "Try to learn something about everything and everything about something." In The Advance of Science in the Last Half Century, he presents a summary of the major developments in Physics, Chemistry and Biology during the period 1839-1889 and their impact on society, within the historical context of philosophical thought and scientific inquiry going back to ...

History remembers certain things a certain way. Henry de Berk investigates what gets left out. Long-form documentaries on crime, power, and the stories we tell ourselves about both. Not to shock. Not to sell a theory. But to follow the evidence where it actually leads — and sit honestly with what it doesn't resolve. New episodes on the cases history got wrong, the myths that stuck, and the truth underneath that's usually more unsettling. For people who know the popular version. And want something more honest.
