Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

David was born in post-war Nottingham, and educated at Nottingham High School. After obtaining a Law degree he became a career-long criminal law practitioner and academic, emigrating in 1989 to Australia, where he still lives.

Combining his two great loves of History and the English language he began writing historical novels as an escape from the realities of life in the criminal law, but did not begin to publish them until close to fulltime retirement, when digital publishing offered a viable alternative to literary agencies, print publishers and rejection slips.

Now blessed with all the time in the world, his former hobby has become a fulltime occupation as he enjoys life in rural New South Wales with his wife, sons and grandchildren to keep him firmly grounded in the reality of the contemporary world.

    The last in this series about Australia and its late 1700s history of the Bradbury family, Englishmen in this far flung continent. Well written historical fiction, well worth the read!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully vibrant storyline
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 16, 2022
    Wonderful family saga that is intriguing and engages the readers interest from book 1 to 4. Enjoyable description that encaptures the reader to visualise life of the early settlers in Australia. Having visited the places mentioned recently it was awesome to imagine the hard lives described and shocking human indignity that over time has developed into beautiful cities. Throughly loved the families described so hardy and altruistic!

    5.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable and down to earth romp through 19th century Aussie history
    Reviewed in Australia on August 22, 2024
    I enjoyed this book, as well as the preceding three volumes of the saga. David Field has the knack of bringing history to life in the hugely enjoyable and enriching form of entertaining stories. The way in which he introduced the reader to the character of Ned Kelly as a boy was both novel and evocative.

    Also, I really appreciate the fact that David is making his writing available on Kindle Unlimited. All too often, local libraries ignore independent authors, preferring to take the easy option of relying on the big publishers for their stock. But the big publishers just print books of a particular genre, which end up being "all the same", little if any innovation being apparent. Give me independent and innovative authors like David Field any day.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 26, 2022
    A tad slow at times but a lot of Australian history. The story of generations of just one family over so many years of the new nation. Very enjoyable.

    Reviewed in Australia on August 15, 2023
    I did not post a review on the individual books in this I thought I would wait until I had read them all. This is a very good series for anyone who is interested in early Australian life of our pioneers. The hardships that they lived through. Well done David and thank you for many hours of reading. Regards Clive.

    5.0 out of 5 stars All that Glitters.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 6, 2022
    I really enjoyed the story and disappointed that they do not continue up to the present day.

    It is not a blood and thunder adventure story more a description of there lives at that time and the times were rough and hard.
