The blurb reads:


In the 19th century Australia went from struggling penal colony to a thriving community with a glowing future.


George Matcham Pitt’s life spanned the greater part of this century. A larger than life character and a master of rhetoric, fond of quoting from classic poets, opinionated and generous to a fault, GM, as he was known, went from humble farmer to landowner, auctioneer and the founder of one of Australia’s first and best-known stock and station agents Pitt, Son & Badgery.


This is the biography of a man who helped to shape a country and play a small part in its transformation from what was once considered the Worst Country in the World into a country to be reckoned with.

The book was assisted by funds allocated to the Royal Australian History Society through the Heritage Branch of the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage.
