In The Days When The World Was Wide is a collection of short stories written by Henry Lawson, a famous Australian writer. The book is set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and depicts the harsh realities of life in the Australian outback during that time. The stories are written in a simple yet powerful style and are full of vivid descriptions of the landscape and the people who inhabit it. The characters in the book are mostly working-class people, struggling to make a living in a harsh and unforgiving environment. Many of the stories deal with themes of loneliness, isolation, and the struggle to find meaning in a difficult and often cruel world. Despite the bleakness of many of the stories, there is also a sense of resilience and hope that runs throughout the book. Overall, In The Days When The World Was Wide is a compelling and evocative portrait of life in the Australian outback, and a testament to the enduring power of Henry Lawson's writing.The night too quickly passes And we are growing old, So let us fill our glasses And toast the Days of Gold; When finds of wondrous treasure Set all the South ablaze.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
