About the Book

Showcasing the extraordinary vigor and scintillating humor of a remarkable artist, writer, and historian, this recollection captures the essence of "the most famous Australian in the world." Absorbing, illuminating, and lavishly illustrated, this fascinating story traces the life and times of Australia's first official war artist and political cartoonist. The beautiful reproductions of Dyson's cartoons and etchings and the in-depth analysis of his work give a unique blend of art, history, and biography.

About the Author :
Ross McMullin is the award-winning author of The Light on the Hill, Pompey Elliott, and So Monstrous a Travesty.

Review :
"A thoroughly researched and impressively detailed biography." --The Mercury Magazine "Dyson is certainly deserving of the effort, not only because of the quality of his work but because his biography illuminates so many of the best and worst aspects of Australian life during the early 20th century." --Sydney Morning Herald "Dyson was a radical genius, social gadfly, committed war artist, great cartoonist and one of the best-known Australians in the world. There's all of that and more in this book." --The Weekend Australian "McMullin's portrait should help restore the reputation of the man once described as the most famous Australian in the world." --The AFR Magazine "Ross McMullin is arguably Australia's most formidable historian ... [Will Dyson] is an outstanding work ... a first-class biography of an extraordinary Australian ... the life of Will Dyson makes truly inspiring reading." --Sunday Telegraph "Ross McMullin's stunning biography entertains, educates and entices the reader to ponder what heights our nation might have reached if we had nurtured and hung on to men such as Dyson . . . this is what biography should be: not just a pallid regurgitation of the facts of a life, but an engagement with that life." --Courier Mail "The story of this talented, likeable, thoroughly political man is well worth knowing on many fronts . . . [an] absorbing book." --Australian Book Review "With this superb biography, McMullin has resurrected a great Australian and put him back on the pedestal where he belongs." --The Weekly Times
