This Collection of Poetic Gems is centred on places, sporting events, people and animals that are important to this patriotic poet/songwriter. Written in an ‘imagery’ style, many of these odes started life as a song. These treasures denote a vast respect for Australia, our military, our sports, and Australian cultural icons, like Winx and the Sydney Olympics. Songs such as The America's Cup Waltz (and its poem) now reside in Australia's Maritime Museum, having also been received with gratitude by Prince Philip and the Queen.
This book encompasses the long sixteenth century, starting with James IV's accession and concluding with Mary, Queen of Scots' execution. At its heart is Scottish political life viewed from local and regional perspectives as well as the centre.
