Hardback. M. Barnard Eldershaw, George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd. Edition: later repr.,Condition remarks:Book: Good Jacket: Wear and tearPages: Tanning and foxing , price clippedMarkings: No markingsA landmark of Australian historical fiction, A House Is Built chronicles the rise and fall of the Waterway family across three generations of colonial Sydney, tracing how ambition, commerce, and personal conflict shape a mercantile dynasty from the 1830s onward. Written under the joint pen name of Marjorie Barnard and Flora Eldershaw, the novel presents a richly textured portrait of a society in transition, where the raw energy of a young colony collides with the rigid social conventions imported from England. The narrative unfolds with measured, literary precision, balancing the domestic tensions within the Waterway household against the broader sweep of economic and social history. Each generation illustrates a different facet of colonial aspiration - the patriarch's iron will, his children's conflicting desires, and the quiet but determined agency of the women who hold the family together. Winner of the inaugural S. H. Prior Memorial Prize in 1929, this pioneering work remains a cornerstone of Australian literature, celebrated for its psychological depth and its unflinching examination of power, inheritance, and identity.
