Book Description
Excerpt from Re-Echoes From Coondambo Page 139, line 3, for re Noah and the vine, read re Noah and vine. Page 149, line 8, for The saddest heart read Of saddest heart. Page 179 line 16, for Yet I remarked read yet still remarked. Page 209, line 28, for and for market stock but too read and market stock but all too. Page 219, line 1, for With thick masses read With thicker masses. Page 220, line 3, for raindrops fingered read raindrop fingered. Page 397, line 2, for her lofty taper read her taut and taper. Note - As the word iron to my ear will not sound rhythmi cally, except as one of two syllables, I always use it as such. Perhaps over many pieces in this book are marked Air, Bonny Dundee, but it is my favourite measure, and one that I find lends itself most readily as a vehicle of description. Of course, there is no reason Why any irrepressible Harris amongst my readers should not surfeit musical tea parties with the said pieces, but I do not expect or wish him to do so.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Echoes From Coondambo The miscellaneous poems and rhyming sketches I now present to your notice have nearly all appeared before, either in newspaper or book form, and I therefore have named the present volume Echoes from Coondambo. I may say that I have crossed the Equator five times in sailing vessels - in three instances before the mast - and six times in steamers, and I have been engaged in squatting pursuits for thirty-five years, twenty-nine of which I have lived in the back bush of South Australia, so that whatever poetic merit the verses may or may not possess, they are at least the outcome of my own actual observation and experience. As one critic, in his review of my first book, published some years ago, said I had modelled the Last Voyage of the London upon F alconer's Shipwreck, and that I had striven to imitate Bret Harte and Joaquim Miller, let me here say that I have never read Falconer's poem, nor have I ever seen Joaquim Miller's works; furthermore, I have read but very few of Bret Harte's poems, and I am modest enough to believe that no one can atter me so much as to establish a similarity between their rhymes and mine. Since I commenced writing verse I have never had any volumes of poetry to which I could refer, save the Ingoldsby Legends, Tom Hood, and Brunton Stephens's Godolphin Arabian, consequently, if I have unconsciously imitated any poets, they would be Scott, Byron, or Pope, my favorite authors when I was a young man, or one of the three authors previously mentioned. I have learnt that my sea and bush pieces are great favorites with sailors and bushmen who have read them, and who cam recognise their truthful description, yet have not the critical ear to detect their literary short comings.
