c/o Postmaster by Corp Thomas R St George. Published by Thomas Y Crowell Co, New York, NY, 1943. 1st Edition (Not Stated). Hardbound. No DJ. Size 8vo (up to 9-1/2'' tall). Condition: Good. Orig owners name in ink inside front cover. Edge wear, corner fray & paper spine cover missing. Owners bookplate in front, to names in ink inside back cover. Content fine. 194 Pgs. Here is a young American soldier stationed somewhere in Australia during WWII learning about fish and chips, about tea and scones, discovering that ice cream is an ''ice,'' that liquor is ''plonk,'' that hard candy is ''lollies,'' that there is a perennial shortage of Coca-Cola and female companionship, that Australian money is confusing, that the way you say ''Who do you think you're kidding?'' is ''Aw, break it down!'' and that Koala beer is not beer at all, but a kind of glorified strawberry pop. The American soldier is learning from his new Australian friends and they are learning, fast, from him. It's all very global and neighborly, and the author gets it nicely into his book. Illustrated by the author. Description text copyright 2006 BooksForComfort. Item ID 11609.…
