Richard Rowe (1828-1879) was an English author, also active in Australia. He was well educated and went to Australia in 1857. He was working on the Month and The Sydney Morning Herald in that year. In 1858, his Peter 'Possum's Portfolio was published in Sydney. Rowe returned to England, wrote much for the newspapers and magazines, and was also the author of several books for young people. Amongst his better works were Episodes in an Obscure Life (1871), Friends and Acquaintances (1871) and Life in the London Streets; or, Struggles for Daily Bread (1881).

Eagle's Plume
Symbol of power, strength, and freedom, the American bald eagle appears on coins, dollar bills, postage stamps, identification cards, and the presidential seal. It is seen everywhere except in the sky, although that is changing; nearly extinct in 1970, the bald eagle has made a modest comeback. In Eagle’s Plume, Bruce E. Beans recounts the compelling, centuries-old story of the bald eagle’s place in American culture and landscape an its struggle for survival. Reviled by western stockmen as a killer of lambs and calves, the bald eagle has been deified by environmentalists as a reminder of America’s natural heritage. When the great national bird was robbed of its habitat and poisoned with pesticides, federal and environmental groups and local communities rallied to save it. Their heroic efforts are chronicled in the book, which also takes the measure and pulse of the bird that so impressed ancient storytellers.
