ACKLAND, MICHAEL Henry Kendall The Man and the Myths
Carlton South, Victoria, Miegunyah Press. 1995, First Edition. (ISBN: 0-522-84650-5) Hardcover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ill.: Photographic. Biography -- Poet, 800 g; XIV, 353 pages, edition limited to 1500 copies; illustrated with black-and-white plates, chapter notes, select bibliography, index, illustrated dust jacket. Slight ruffling of the top edge of the dust jacket and shelf wear to the base of the boards. Digital image available upon request. "In writing this first full-scale account of Kendall's life and times, Michael Ackland has used a store of previously unpublished information to separate the real man from the myths which have come to surround him. He replaces the popular image of Kendall as a melancholy poet of the Australian bush with a fascinatingly complex portrait of a robust, enigmatic and many side character whose life registered the full impact of family tragedies, religious crises, drunkenness and poverty." -- front fold over blurb. Very Good/Very Good.
