Australian horse-breaker and balladist Harry Morant was executed in South Africa in 1902 after service in the Boer War. 'Breaker Morant' shows that Morant's shooting of Boer prisoners was probably the result of a command inciting his patrol to vengeance. Lord Kitchener, who signed Morant's death warrant, was possibly appeasing the German Emperor, since a German missionary also died....but Morant had advised this missionary to defend himself from the dangerous Boers. FM Cutlack knew Harry Breaker Morant personally, having ridden with him in South Australia in 1898-9.

Both works have been presented here as one special condensed edition to accompany the magnificanet film 'We of the Never-Never'

Women hate me,' thought Lauren Slaughter, newly arrived in London to write a thesis on oil revenue. But men were a different matter. Men admired - and wanted - her for her striking good looks and ability to please. She despised most of them, but she needed their money; and London had to offer more to a pretty American than a cold, uncomfortable Brixton flat.
