ABOUT THE BOOK
Brutally kidnapped and separated in childhood, Tommo and Hawk are reunited at the age of 15 in Hobart Town. Together they escape their troubled pasts and set off on a journey into manhood. From whale hunting in the Pacific to the Maori Wars of New Zealand, from the Rocks in Sydney to the miner’s riots at the goldfields, Tommo and Hawk must learn each other’s strengths and weaknesses in order to survive. Along the way, Hawk meets the outrageous Maggie Pye, who brings love and laughter into his life. But the demons of Tommo’s past return to haunt the brothers. With Tommo at his side, Hawk takes on a fight against all odds to save what they cherish most.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Bryce Courtenay was born illegitimately in 1933 in South Africa and spent his early childhood years in a small town deep in the heart of the Lebombo mountains. It was a somewhat isolated community and grew up among farm folk and the African people. At the age of five he was sent to a boarding school which might be better described as a combination orphanage and reform school, where he learned to box - though less as a sport and more as a means to stay alive.
He survived to return to a small mountain town named Barberton in the North Eastern part of the country. Here he met Doc, a drunken German music teacher who spent the next few years filling his young mind with the wonders of nature as they roamed the high mountains. His was the best education he was ever to receive, he said, despite the scholarship he won to a prestigious boy’s school and thereafter to a university in England where he studied Journalism.
He came to Australia because he was banned from returning to his own country. This was due to the fact that he had started a weekend school for Africans in the school hall of the prestigious boy’s school he attended. One day the school hall was raided by the police who then branded him a Communist as they considered educating Africans a subversive act.
While studying journalism, he met a Australian girl. “Come to my country!” Benita invited. He did, and soon after arriving in Australia, married her. Benita gave him three splendid sons, Brett, Adam and Damon. Brett.
He lived all his Australian life in Sydney and, until he started writing fiction, made a career in advertising working as a copywriter and creative director. At the age of 55 he decided to take the plunge. He had been telling stories since the age of five and had always known he would be a writer some day, though life kept getting in the way until he realised that it was either now or never.
Bryce Courtenay died at his home in Canberra, Australia. He was 79.

Condescending Scotsman strikes again!
May 27th, 2016
I don’t think you understand what ‘condescending’ means. If you are seeding and know your way around torrents then the message isn’t aimed at you. On the other hand if you check a thesaurus your scornful attitude could be interpreted as ‘condescending’. Funny that…

Thank you “smugalugs”. I think “YourMum” is missing the point.

having or showing an attitude of patronizing superiority.
we have uploaded these books just for you
It is only right therefore
In other words, don’t stop after you have finished the download. Check and make sure
WE DO OUR BIT AND YOU DO YOUR BIT
If you are new to this and don’t understand.
Wishing to be helpful doesn’t negate smug cuntness.

What can I say about your last remark.
May 28th, 2016
“Wishing to be helpful doesn’t negate smug cuntness”.
Pointing out someone is being condescending from your own high-horse is just a tad hypocritical YourMum.
At least I wear my badge of smugness proudly and have that level of self-awareness.
I still don’t know how you can be offended by someone giving instructions to newbies and maybe trying to guilt a few hit-and-run losers into seeding.
As an uploader, I would think you would like to see your contributions survive for as long as possible. I am seeding so many torrents on this and many private trackers that I have to stop some when I want to use the internet. It doesn’t offend me because I don’t need the reminder… or help.
As an obsessive tagger myself (yes I will even change all of these to my own scheme) all I think oldscotsman can be accused of is being… well… obsessive.
Lets just all agree that you don’t need the lecture and it’s not aimed at you then if one newbies pays attention or actually contacts him for help he can crow his vindication and you can ignore it.
Oh… and thank you for your uploads. I enjoyed several of them. (both oldscotsman and YourMum)
