Arthur Upfield is one of my most totally awesomely fave authors in the entire world. He really understood the land that is Australia, and its influence on people, whatever race or culture.
I have read most of his works, if not all. They aren't hard to get your hands on in Aust. Even before the TV series etc. Just like most classic authors in Aust they were around, and well-loved.
In fact the other night I had a dream where I had a kindle (mum just got one. I WANT!!!) and I was finding all the Arthur Upfield I could and downloading them. They were conveniently in my dream, out of copyright thus very cheap yay! *grins*
