On the Fringe of the Harbor is an admiring look at Botany Bay in New South Wales. John Arthur Berry writes a love letter to the industry of sailing and the piers of Australia. Excerpt: "I don't know whether Captain Arthur Phillip ever had the Sirius brought up as far as Farm Cove. It is quite probable that he did, and that the old warship of one hundred and ten years ago and her consorts of the First Fleet swung to their anchors on the very same spot where now crouch the steel dragons of a later day."
South Sea Shipmates by John Arthur Barry follows an extraordinary and sight-filled adventure over the South Sea in search of treasure. Excerpt: "Barry was singularly lovable, and made friends wherever he went. Though brave and adventurous, he was gentle and kindly by nature, and no roughness of life and companionship ever made him other than a gentleman in the best sense. He seemed to have a gift for getting on with all sorts and conditions of men on land and sea, and he sketches their various characters with sympathy and insight, and no little sense of humor."
A Son of the Sea by John Arthur Barry is a wild, shipwreck adventure following a young and lovable captain named Torre and written in an old literary style. Excerpt: "HIT him again, Torre! harder, oh harder, ever so much! Mind! he's got a stone! Oh, the great coward!" Thus shrilled a little girl as she danced, wild with excitement, around two boys, one considerably the stouter and heavier, who were doggedly pummelling each other in a secluded spot of the garden hidden from the house by a thick grove of laurels."
