Biographical history
Ion L. Idriess contributed to the Bulletin's 'Aboriginalities' column and other journals under such pseudonyms as 'Gouger', 'Up North' and 'Emucrest' and had some success with earlier books such as his first, Madman's Island (1926); in 1931 he wrote his first best-seller, Lasseter's Last Ride, and Prospecting for Gold, a practical guide to gold mining. From this time until his last book appeared in 1969, he regularly published at least one book a year, providing tales of Australian adventure in a congenial and well-structured style. He also wrote several books for children about historical events in Australia. --excerpted from AustLit
