Thomas McCombie 1819-1869 An Early Melbourne Writer

MARGIN: Life & Letters in Early Australia, April, 2004 by Caroline Innett

> McCombie's extensive writings have not been reprinted or sufficiently studied to be able to give a proper assessment of their worth. The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature gives a short but more considered view of Thomas McCombie's works when it states that they are 'unexceptional works of literature but worthwhile because of their enthusiasm for and realistic account of life in Australia'.
