There was a simple country boy who lived on the edge of the world, and his name was Harry Baird. That is not the whole story.
First published in 1968, Sydney Bridge Upside Down has long been considered a New Zealand literary masterpiece. Published now for the first time in Australia, this brilliant tale, told in an entirely distinctive voice, deserves a place on the bookshelf alongside period classics like Wake in Fright and My Brother Jack.
