Book Description

This early work by George A.Taylor was originally published in 1915 and we are now republishing it as part of our WWI Centenary Series. 'The Sequel' is a work of fiction about the Australian aviator, Lieutenant Jefson. The author concludes the preface to this book with these sentiments: 'The story is written to impress the people, with their great responsibilities in these wonderful days-when a century of incident is crowded into a month, when an hour contains sixty minutes of tremendous possibilities, when each of us should live the minutes, hours, days and weeks with every fibre strained to give the best that is in us to help in the present stupendous struggle for the defence of civilisation.' This book is part of the World War One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet fascinating period of human history. Each publication also includes brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help the reader place the work in its historical context.
