Lawson’s writing is often humorous and inspired by romantic notions of the Australian “character”. In stories such as 1892′s The Drover’s Wife he exalted the “mateship” of rural Australians surviving the harsh and isolated environment. He often led an itinerant life and struggled with alcoholism. He was the first Australian writer granted a state funeral.
