Paperback. David Everett - renegade soldier, outlaw, fugitive and, at one time, Australia's most-wanted man - always liked a bit of action. Here, for the first time, he tells his remarkable story. A far-from-strapping lad from Tasmania, Dave proved everybody wrong by passing the gruelling selection course to join the SAS. Unsatisfied by the Regiment, he left to take up the cause of the oppressed Karen people of Burma, becoming a seasoned jungle-fighter in the process. On his return to Australia, Dave became every government's nightmare- a highly skilled special-forces soldier on a crime spree. On a mission to raise funds for the Karen, he kidnapped people from their homes, robbed movie theatres and plotted some of the most audacious crimes ever conceived in Australia. At the height of his infamy every police officer in the country was on the lookout for him, while the tabloid press fuelled the public's fear of a trained killer gone crazy. Dave was blown up, shot at, bashed, interrogated, tortured and locked in solitary confinement, but nothing diminished his wild streak. While serving his jail sentence, he had time to reflect. In Shadow Warrior, he tells his story with unflinching honesty and larrikin wit. . These are USED books. Please only purchase if you are happy with that.

Cloth. Etat : Very Good. A charming copy of the 'Water-Babies', a Victorian classic by Charles Kingsley, beautifully illustrated with colour plates. 'The Water-Babies' is a children's novel by Charles Kingsley originally written as a serial for Macmillan Magazine between 1862-1863. It was first published in its entirety in 1863. The novel follows Tom, a young chimney sweep who falls into the river and is transformed into a water-baby. Written as a satire in support of Charles Darwin's On The Origin of Species.Kingsley writes 'The Water-Babies' as a didactic moral fable. The novel expresses many of the common prejudices of the time including religion, racial tension, and diversity. Though it has largely fallen out of favor within the canon of Children's literature when published the Water-Babies was an immediate success. Illustrated with twenty-four colour plates by Ethel F. Everett. Collated complete. In the original publisher's cloth. Externally very smart. Fading to the spine. Rubbing to the head and tail of the spine. Internally firmly bound. Offsetting to the front and rear endpapers. Spotting to the first and last pages but generally, the pages are bright and clean with the odd spot. All plates are bright and clean. Very Good. Ethel F.
